hey this is an honest question, a contribution of 1 million dollars from goldman sachs to me doesn’t seem like a lot of money, compared to say what ron paul makes in a single money bomb, i llooked at the campaign contributions from banks to obama in 2008 and it was only something like 3 million, how is this in any way a staggering or worrysome amount? i would expect a much larger contribution to stir up controversy but 1 million seems like nothing, can someone explain this to me?

@mikegustafson101 If nothing happens after all this… then I think you might be more prophetic then curious.

Brothers and sisters-the age of austerity is upon us-get used to having nothing.
No jobs, no economy, no food, no health care, no retirement, no future-and it’ll be worse for your poor children. The banks will soon own everything.

One of the most informative videos I have seen. G-S must be the most wicked group of men who think they are smarter than anyone.This country is on its last leg and I see no hope. We must demanding our rights be returned, demand G-S be prosecuted, T. Geitner fired, Bernanke fired, Greenspan must explain –
We are in serious trouble and there is no way out Read Johnny Gosch site – pedophilia in govt – then see Penn St – most certainly deeper than just assistant coach. G-S, the evil leader.

Chris Hedges is always awesome though.
