Thank you for mentioning the Coup attempt of 1933. I am familiar with Smedley Butler and how he thwarted the effort of Bush and his cronies. The Bush crowd has been front and center in the money rules crowd. Didn’t know it started back in WW1. Teddy’s efforts were just an interruption….

hmm. Comeuppance ain't never gonna work on the people who aim to become robber barons. I'd like to see some real Jail Time from now on. Way more than Enron, the only ones I can even think of that were actually incarcerated. And how about some seizing of assets? vote vote vote

On, I love how you think. The Enron debacle was overshadowed by 9/11 but it was only the beginning of the W/Dickie reign of financial, political, and moral terror. I’d try for some more old age time if I thought I could see some bars for the perps and some green from the perps. If only voting were the answer. An ethical uprising would be nice. The MAGAts are great at pseudo-righteousness but if God don’t know, we certainly should.
