Wall Street Declares War on Warren

[georgephillip]

The Wall Street Campaign to Stop Elizabeth Warren Officially Began on September 10, 2019

"Yesterday, that Wall Street campaign officially began. CNBC’s Jim Cramer and David Faber discussed on TV how they are hearing from Wall Street bank executives that Warren must be stopped..."

Can you guess why Wall Street's trolls have a problem with Liz?

Bloomberg Knows:

"On the same day, September 10, 2019, Bloomberg News, which is majority owned by billionaire Michael Bloomberg, whose $52.4 billion net worth derives from leasing his data terminals to thousands of Wall Street trading floors around the globe, ran this headline: 'Richest Could Lose Hundreds of Billions Under Warren’s Wealth Tax.'

"Obviously, that wouldn’t sit too well with Michael Bloomberg, who has frequently penned his own OpEds for his financial news empire..."

"The opinion piece was titled 'Warren’s Assault on Retiree Wealth,' and was written by Phil Gramm and Mike Solon. Gramm is the former Republican Senator whose name appears on the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the legislation that repealed the Glass-Steagall Act."

"t was that repeal that allowed Wall Street’s casino investment banks to merge with commercial banks holding Federally-insured deposits.

"And it was this dangerous combo that led to the epic crash on Wall Street in 2008 and the ensuing economic collapse in the U.S. – the greatest collapse since the Great Depression."

There are economic events on the horizon (like negative interest rates) that pose a legitimate threat to savers and retirees; Liz Warren is not among them.

She and Bernie seem like the only two possibilities for those disgusted with the last 40 years of neoliberal wealth and income redistribution.

Elizabeth Warren understands Wall Street better than any other presidential candidate

"Elizabeth Warren understands Wall Street better than any other presidential candidate.

"She studied it in her previous career as a Harvard professor, and she has effectively built her own think tank inside the Senate, coming up with genuinely novel ideas for how to improve financial regulation.

"What to watch: Warren has already received the grudging respect of many on Wall Street.

"Her diagnoses of where the financial services industry falls short are generally accurate, and her proposed regulations would probably give a competitive advantage to financial giants with large compliance departments."

One analysis I've read claims Wall Street prefers Biden or Mayor Pete, and they think they can leverage Warren to advance Pete.

The fix is in just as it was in 2016. The DNC will never allow their candidate bring anything other than controlled by the elite establishment.

This is why Tulsi was excluded. She is the real deal. Can’t have that.

“…this also points to a bigger issue and challenge that goes beyond the DNC and party politics, the government itself. There’s people who are increasingly losing that faith and trust in the government because they see a lack of transparency there and they see that we don’t have a government that is of, by, and for the people, and really what they see is a small group of really powerful political elites, the establishment, making decisions that serve their interests and maintaining that power while the rest of us are left outside.” Tulsi Gabbard

The fix is in just as it was in 2016. The DNC will never allow their candidate bring anything other than controlled by the elite establishment.

This is why Tulsi was excluded. She is the real deal. Can’t have that.

Tulsi was one of my first two POTUS picks a year ago.
I'm hoping Bernie taps her for his first Secretary of State.

Tulsi Gabbard: ‘Assad is not the enemy of the United States’

Bernie will not get the nomination. If they have to cheat him again to prevent it, they will.

If they can exclude Tulsi but include Pete B and Harris (two clearly unqualified idiots owned by the .1%), they will deny Bernie again.

Plus Bernie is self destructive with his free everything for illegals and funding abortions in Africa.

Bernie will not get the nomination. If they have to cheat him again to prevent it, they will.

If they can exclude Tulsi but include Pete B and Harris (two clearly unqualified idiots owned by the .1%), they will deny Bernie again.

Imho, Biden, Harris, and Pete are the three corporate Dems the Party wants to "choose" between. If they cheat Bernie again, a generation of progressive voters will start looking elsewhere for their candidates. Hopefully, both parties will self-destruct before 2024?

I agree. The party does want another corporate nominee, which makes no sense. Hillary is the biggest corporate D ever and she lost to Donnie. The party screwed Bernie supporters who then refused to vote for her. The progressives will not vote for another corporate D, which could give Donnie another four years.

I don’t believe the party bigwigs have learned anything. I suspect they think they can fool the voters into voting for a corporatist, because Donnie is so bad.

Why does the D Party exists if it refuses to promote progressive policies and mimics the R Party?

I don't agree with Progressives, but I agree the process seems biased. I would rather see a progressive elected fairly than a moderate inserted for "electability".

Americans tend to see problems in individual or psychological terms instead of social and structural ones; we see people rather than systems (like capitalism), and we've been taught to believe all behavior reflects free personal choice.

When the next white American male picks up his gun and shoots up the nearest school he will be judged mentally ill, or individually evil, or someone who failed to receive the moral teachings a good society imparts.

It will never occur to most good Americans that it is their sociopathic society that creates the psychological disorders that drive school shooters, here and abroad.

A society free of land rents?

Mixed economies and monopoly | Michael Hudson

"The kind of 'mixed economy' envisioned by Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill and other classical 19th century free market economists aimed at saving the economy from land rent paid to Europe’s hereditary landlord class.

"Either the government would tax away the land’s rent, or would nationalize it by taking land out of the hands of landlords.

"The idea was to free markets from economic rent ('unearned income') in general, including monopoly rents, and also to subsidize basic needs to create a price-competitive national economy."

How many more innocent human beings have to die in places like Korea, Vietnam, Laos, Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Libya with millions more on the chopping block in Africa so you can worship your big screen?

You mean like when Obama fought the war in Iraq for three years, bombed the shit out of Libya, when they did nothing to us, created ISIS and escalated the war in Iraq? Is that the kind of interventionism you are talking about?

He managed to do all that while at the same time increasing poverty, decreasing family income, destroying health care, running up tremendous debt and having dismal economic growth?

Your partisan blather condemning Obama's foreign and domestic failures while ignoring similar Republican perfidy makes me think you still believe there's a fundamental political difference between Democrats and Republicans.

Me too. Yes there are remnants of free market capitalism, but it doesn’t exist to a great degree at the highest levels of income earners. It’s rather strange that those of us in the middle class and working class are subject to the tough rules of capitalism, while those at the top aren’t.

"Obviously, that wouldn’t sit too well with Michael Bloomberg, who has frequently penned his own OpEds for his financial news empire..."

"The opinion piece was titled 'Warren’s Assault on Retiree Wealth,' and was written by Phil Gramm and Mike Solon. Gramm is the former Republican Senator whose name appears on the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the legislation that repealed the Glass-Steagall Act."

"t was that repeal that allowed Wall Street’s casino investment banks to merge with commercial banks holding Federally-insured deposits.

"And it was this dangerous combo that led to the epic crash on Wall Street in 2008 and the ensuing economic collapse in the U.S. – the greatest collapse since the Great Depression."

There are economic events on the horizon (like negative interest rates) that pose a legitimate threat to savers and retirees; Liz Warren is not among them.

What Negative Interest Rates Mean For Your Retirement

God Bless Phil Gramm for watching our investments. (sarcasm)

God Bless Phil Gramm for watching our investments. (sarcasm)

Enron Phil has been one of our greatest Americans:

The Wall Street Campaign to Stop Elizabeth Warren Officially Began on September 10, 2019

"Gramm was not only a registered lobbyist for the global investment bank, UBS, but he formed his own lobbying firm, Gramm Partners.

"Gramm’s wife is Wendy Lee Gramm, the former Chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) from 1988 to January 1993, who gave Wall Street exactly what it wanted in leaving its dangerous derivative contracts free from Federal regulation until the crash...."

"According to a report from Public Citizen:

"'In 1992, as the first step in its business plan to profit on the speculation of energy, Enron petitioned the CFTC to make regulatory changes that would limit the scope of the commission’s authority over certain kinds of futures contracts.'

"'Immediately before leaving the CFTC, Gramm muscled through approval of an unusual draft regulation that would do just that – it narrowed the definition of futures contracts and excluded Enron’s energy future contracts and swaps from regulatory oversight.'

"Although her actions were criticized by government officials who feared the change would have severe negative consequences (as, in fact, it did), Gramm was rewarded five weeks after she left the CFTC with a lucrative appointment to Enron’s Board of Directors. Between 1993 and 2001, when the company declared bankruptcy, Enron paid Gramm between $915,000 and $1.85 million in salary, attendance fees, stock option sales, and dividends.'"

The irony is that bankers making money is not the same as banks (shareholders) making money. Warren, as was FDR, is not a threat to owners (shareholders) of well run banking houses. She is a distinct threat to bankers who use shareholders money to enrich themselves, but not necessarily the shareholders. And Bloomberg makes his money from the bankers, not the shareholders.

I'm not sufficiently stupid to believe the USA came to dominate the globe by respecting human rights, are you?

And yet all these mthr fkrs come here. You should ask yourself that question.

You stay stupid as you are, we love it

You haven't seen immigration yet, Stupid

Who’s Really Crossing the U.S. Border, and Why They’re Coming

Don't want any more south of the border immigrants, legal or otherwise-learn English first or don't come. If you are an asylumee, stay in Mexico.

If you don't like the asylum laws in the US, move to Russia where there are even more white skinned bigots

8 U.S. Code § 1158 - Asylum

"Authority to apply for asylum
alien who is physically present in the United States or who arrives in the United States (whether or not at a designated port of arrival and including an alien who is brought to the United States after having been interdicted in international or United States waters), irrespective of such alien’s status, may apply for asylum in accordance with this section or, where applicable, section 1225(b) of this title."

No, I'll lobby to change the unfair laws that give preference to ignorant central americans over brown skinned Indians who waited their turn and speak English. Why don't YOU go to Mexico where they encourage refugees to go to the US?

Yeah, it's not like Warren's gonna stop monetizing debt.

Agree with the gipper, all show in order to weaponize democracy at every stage of the game and on every channel 24/7.

Wall Street WANTS Warren to win. They know she will do their bidding just as Ears and Hillary did.

Yup, Wall Street wants to keep using that cheap Chinese slave labor, President Trump wants them to move manufacturing to the US.

They will side with Dems and slavery because that’s the most profitable.

That's right, Wall St will side with Warren over Trump. You've certainly got a handle on this.

The Wall Street Campaign to Stop Elizabeth Warren Officially Began on September 10, 2019

"Yesterday, that Wall Street campaign officially began. CNBC’s Jim Cramer and David Faber discussed on TV how they are hearing from Wall Street bank executives that Warren must be stopped..."

Can you guess why Wall Street's trolls have a problem with Liz?

Bloomberg Knows:

"On the same day, September 10, 2019, Bloomberg News, which is majority owned by billionaire Michael Bloomberg, whose $52.4 billion net worth derives from leasing his data terminals to thousands of Wall Street trading floors around the globe, ran this headline: 'Richest Could Lose Hundreds of Billions Under Warren’s Wealth Tax.'

"Obviously, that wouldn’t sit too well with Michael Bloomberg, who has frequently penned his own OpEds for his financial news empire..."

"The opinion piece was titled 'Warren’s Assault on Retiree Wealth,' and was written by Phil Gramm and Mike Solon. Gramm is the former Republican Senator whose name appears on the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the legislation that repealed the Glass-Steagall Act."

"t was that repeal that allowed Wall Street’s casino investment banks to merge with commercial banks holding Federally-insured deposits.

"And it was this dangerous combo that led to the epic crash on Wall Street in 2008 and the ensuing economic collapse in the U.S. – the greatest collapse since the Great Depression."

There are economic events on the horizon (like negative interest rates) that pose a legitimate threat to savers and retirees; Liz Warren is not among them.

What Negative Interest Rates Mean For Your Retirement

God Bless Phil Gramm for watching our investments. (sarcasm)

Enron Phil has been one of our greatest Americans:

The Wall Street Campaign to Stop Elizabeth Warren Officially Began on September 10, 2019

"Gramm was not only a registered lobbyist for the global investment bank, UBS, but he formed his own lobbying firm, Gramm Partners.

"Gramm’s wife is Wendy Lee Gramm, the former Chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) from 1988 to January 1993, who gave Wall Street exactly what it wanted in leaving its dangerous derivative contracts free from Federal regulation until the crash...."

"According to a report from Public Citizen:

"'In 1992, as the first step in its business plan to profit on the speculation of energy, Enron petitioned the CFTC to make regulatory changes that would limit the scope of the commission’s authority over certain kinds of futures contracts.'

"'Immediately before leaving the CFTC, Gramm muscled through approval of an unusual draft regulation that would do just that – it narrowed the definition of futures contracts and excluded Enron’s energy future contracts and swaps from regulatory oversight.'

"Although her actions were criticized by government officials who feared the change would have severe negative consequences (as, in fact, it did), Gramm was rewarded five weeks after she left the CFTC with a lucrative appointment to Enron’s Board of Directors. Between 1993 and 2001, when the company declared bankruptcy, Enron paid Gramm between $915,000 and $1.85 million in salary, attendance fees, stock option sales, and dividends.'"

The irony is that bankers making money is not the same as banks (shareholders) making money. Warren, as was FDR, is not a threat to owners (shareholders) of well run banking houses. She is a distinct threat to bankers who use shareholders money to enrich themselves, but not necessarily the shareholders. And Bloomberg makes his money from the bankers, not the shareholders.

Again, what has Warren done for Americans since she’s been in office?
