The Great American Bubble Machine - by Matt Taibbi

"IF AMERICA IS NOW CIRCLING THE DRAIN, GOLDMAN SACHS HAS FOUND A WAY TO BE THAT DRAIN." Matt Taibbi

"The Great American Bubble Machine" by Matt Taibbi is in the July 2009 edition of Rolling Stone magazine. Well worth the read as Taibbi explores Goldman Sach's involvement in creating 'bubbles' to bilk the people of their money...from the Great Drepression, to the dotcom bubble, to the housing and mortgage fiasco and the summer of 2008 huge spike in oil prices.

"From Tech stocks to high gas prices, Goldman Sachs has engineered every major market manipulation since the Great Depression - and they're about to do it again."
The next bubble to be inflated is carbon credits which will be put in place by Obama's Cap and Trade legislation. Obama estimates $648 billion will be traded in the first seven years. Goldman Sachs is salivating over this bill that has now passed the house and been sent to the senate - vultures circling the carcass of a dying American empire.

Snip:
"The first thing you need to know about Goldman Sachs is that it is everywhere. The world's most powerful investment bank is a great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity relentlessly jamming it's blood funnel into anything that smells like money. In fact, the history of the recent financial crisis, which doubles as a history of the rapid decline and fall of the suddenly swindled-dry American empire, reads like a who's who of Goldman Sachs graduates."
