<br>The Bailout Lie Exposed: Financial "Big Boys" Never Intended To Lend Out Their Windfall<br><a href="http://www.infowars.com/?p=5606">http://www.infowars.com/?p=5606</a><br><br>Bailout: It's all part of the New International Economic Order<br>
<a href="http://www.infowars.com/?p=4774">http://www.infowars.com/?p=4774</a><br><br><br>"British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said he would travel to New York on Wednesday to discuss what he called the "first crisis of the global economy." Brown said a "global regulatory system" should be established to govern a world where national borders often have little meaning. He added that Britain "was paying a price" for problems that started in the United States."<br>

<a href="http://www.infowars.com/?p=5284">http://www.infowars.com/?p=5284</a><br><br>"The result of this bailout - a major consolidation and restructuring of the US banking industry--will be quite harmful to the interests of the population. The smaller number of surviving banks will have even more market power to set interest rates and control access to credit for working people, students and small businesses."<br>
"While the best-connected firms will profit immensely from the bailout, the bourgeoisie and its political representatives insist there is no money for elementary social needs of the working class, such as foreclosure relief, universal health care and the right to a secure retirement."<br>
<br><br>Paulson Doles Out $125 Billion to Wall Street Elite<br><a href="http://www.infowars.com/?p=5283">http://www.infowars.com/?p=5283</a><br><br>"Forbes calls it "Bailout II," the Treasury Department's "injection" of capital into selected banks, thus "following in the footsteps of European governments in an effort to restore confidence to the ailing financial system." Later today, Bush, Paulson, Fed boss Bernanke, Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. chairman Sheila Bair, and "other economic officials will announce details of the revised $700 billion economic rescue plan," according to Forbes."<br>
"But here's what Forbes does not tell you: half of the money will end up in banks that don't actually need to be "rescued." Last month, Bush and his Wall Street cronies told us the bailout would be aimed at the mortgage market, and yet JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bank of New York Mellon, and others will walk away with over $125 billion and it has nothing to do with the engineered "distress" of the mortgage market. As the Hartford Courant notes, this "is part of a wider plan that goes beyond the $700 billion rescue package approved by Congress earlier this month.""<br>
<br><br>FEMA sources confirm coming martial law<br><a href="http://www.infowars.com/?p=5265">http://www.infowars.com/?p=5265</a><br><br>"On April 3, 2008, WMR reported on a highly-classified document regarding the martial law scenario: WMR has learned from knowledgeable sources within the US financial community that an alarming confidential and limited distribution document is circulating among senior members of Congress and their senior staff members that is warning of a bleak future for the United States if it does not quickly get its financial house in order. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is among those who have reportedly read the document.<br>
The document is being called the "C & R" document because it reportedly states that if the United States defaults on loans and debt underwriting from China, Japan, and Russia, all of which are propping up the United States government financially, and the United States unilaterally cancels the debts, America can expect a war that will have disastrous results for the United States and the world. "Conflict" is the "C word" in the document. The other scenario is that the federal government will be forced to drastically raise taxes in order to pay off debts to foreign countries to the point that the American people will react with a popular revolution against the government. "Revolution" is the document's "R word."<br>

Putting some kind of restriction on futures speculators would've kept the price of a barrel of oil from skyrocketing like it did. The fortunate side of the stock market crash was that speculators were no longer willing to speculate on oil. Once that artificial demand was removed, combined with a wholesale change in how much gas people were using, prices were destined to drop like a lead balloon.<br>

> The question is where the price of a barrel of oil and a tank of gas will finally stabilize. I would guess around $2.20 a gallon here in Denver, but I have absolutely no evidence, nor is it an informed guess. It's just a gut feeling. And I've got a whole lot of gut in which to grow a feeling, if you know what I mean. :)<br>
