They would just need to have a few people organize it and direct the group to be more efficient. Imagine what involved, focused people could do if they worked together! 1 1 Link to comment

That's a far cry from the stupid cartoon that started this. In fairness to the government, the banking regulations put in place after the Great Depression worked pretty darned well. It worked so well that they repealed them. And liberated from oversight the financial class pursued the same doomed objectives, abetted by both Republicans and Democrats showing off their pro-business creds. It was greed, stupidity and delusion, so I get kinda tired hearing that a rising tide lifts all ships at sea. These guys will sell their mother and our kids down the river if it means a fourth quarter profit. If you want to go back to a time when America was great --- pretty much anytime America was great — there was a higher tax on the rich than there is now. 4 Link to comment
