Maybe for the same reason that some of the largest banks laundered drug
cartel money? And other crimes the list of which is finally becoming
more public, but which the media and the idiot D/R partisans will only
clamor for "more regulation!" No, "less taxes and regulation!" --
completely missing the point that the only truly essential function of
government--to PROSECUTE CRIME, is not happening.

Well, unless you or I steal a candy bar, smoke some weed, or get caught
peeing behind a bush, then we'll go to jail for sure.

Quite simply, the government refuses to prosecute crime by the elite.

This is kleptocracy. We are doomed as long as it continues.


Also, one has to question whether we really want to ever "win" the "War
on Terror?"

Just like the "War on Drugs," where the incentive for the government is
to keep it going indefinitely, these "wars" are better for the state to
never win.


Good luck keeping the last vestiges of our freedom.
