Naomi Klein: Bailout is ‘multi-trillion-dollar crime scene’
By David Edwards
Democracy Now’s Amy Goodman talked with Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine about the government’s financial rescue plan. “The more details emerge, the clearer it becomes that Washington’s handling of the Wall Street bailout is not merely incompetent. It is borderline criminal,” said Klein

Democracy Now! has a full transcript of Naomi Klein’s interview.

This video is from LinkTV’s Democracy Now!, broadcast Nov. 17, 2008.

      “those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” Anybody remember their history? What was the purpose of the federal reserve when it was created? Please no ass ventriloquists need answer only those who know their history.

      Hahah, you’re funny, I guess you’ve got better things to be doing with your “reptilian mind”. I’m off to watch the 80s TV show “V” now. See what you’ve done there? You’ve only gone and got me all nostalgic now!

      Wow, why thank you! I guess I could take take that as either a compliment, or simply as your resignation? Either way, concession accepted.

      Your obsessive pedantry

      By saying that you don’t know or understand anything, is a fair statement. But to then contradict yourself by saying that you know it’s a “MASSIVE LIE”, simply doesn’t make sense to me. Hence my questioning. With regard to the “mindlessly judgemental person” statement, I would say that judging by the two “-1″ scores my previous statements have recieved, I would “assume” that you are the responsible party. Now that’s natural deduction for you my friend.

      Hello idasputen, with regard to your most recent comment, here is my defence. Firstly, I don’t believe that I made a single assumption at all. As an assumption, in my view, is a conclusion, drawn through natural deduction. If I had already “assumed” something, then I wouldn’t have had to pose a single question. If you read the questions again, you will see that I merely asked if you could defend your statement/comment on why it would “appear” that you favour a conspiracy over the truth?

      bettySwollox- Why assume I’m incapable of realising the vast educational facilities at my disposal, why assume I havent researched extensively?
      TAX systems ARE corrupt BS.
      I’ve seen MUCH factual evidence to back this claim.
      SEE my playlists for a start.
      Why assume I do not understand the meaning of the word ‘lie’ or that ‘conspiracies’ interest me more than facts?
      Why bother me at all with your patronising drivel?
      Ive no interest in communicating more with such a mindlessly judgemental person.

      idasputem, that fact that you don’t understand something automatically means that it is lie does it? Why is it that you appear to prefer a conspiracy theory over no theory at all? Ignorance isn’t another form of knowing! But without sounding too rude, you can educate yourself on this subject in a matter of a few hours, just by watching similar videos to this one on youtube.

      Was not even $700billion but $800 Billion after congressmen/senators were bribed with the last $100 Billion.

      In total, bailout is actually $5 Trillion so far, most of which did not need Congressional Approval.

      Hang them all for treason and fraud.

      KILL THE NWO NOW! Cut all the NWO heads off.

      She repeatedly said 700 trillion instead of 700 billion. Doesn’t help to do that when you’re attempting to buck the hypnotist’s official line. I especially enjoy their infantilization of the public. You can’t handle knowing the truth. You’d lose confidence in the institutions that are robbing you. So we’ll keep it secret. Daddy government/corporation knows best. Sleep well our children.

      Selling derivatives based on the mortgages of properties that don’t exist, isn’t borderline illegal, and these derivatives are not toxic assets. They are non-assets. They are worthless pixels and paper. The so-called bailout is the purchase fraud instruments using your money. It is also the purchase of stocks for roughly twice their current market value, again using your money. Over 10 trillion dollars have been robbed from american tax-payers over the past few years starting with the DoD theft.
