The economy has people scared...


Idle hands, and all that....

The economy, as you undoubtedly know, has everyone terrified and scared. Losing your job, your home, your transportation, your health care, trying to make ends meet, trying to put food on the table, all of that can be real-life, for-real-ass scary stuff. Oh, you weren't talking about the 1/6th of Americans without work, or the 40% without insurance, or the 1/4th in poverty or the 20% on food stamps?

  

Might want to put those Benjies away, son....


No, it seems the people that are scared now are precisely the ones who ought to both be afraid, and deep-down disgusted with their cupidity, stupidity and greed. Seems some enterprising people, royally fucked over the by the Capitalist lie, are taking wealth redistribution into their own hands. 

A Los Angeles lawyer who had represented a failed subprime mortgage lender is found dead outside his home, having been shot in the head.

Three men allegedly invade the home of a former subprime lender, and are arrested after reportedly injuring three people inside.
Vandals target the home of the former CEO of the Royal Bank of Scotland, smashing windows in the banker's home and car.

This isn't good folks, but it's what happens when you play fair in a world of bastards that don't. Ever heard of anomie-strain theory? Life kicks the shit out of you, and you have very few options to kick back, and eventually people explode. It's only going to get worse from here people: Explosion, thy time is now.




It might not get you out of foreclosure, but apparently it makes you feel better....
