If the head of the IMF can be arrested and held without bond?

Then which big shot, which big CEO, which big banker, oil executive, or politician is safe from the long arm of the law? This must shake the shuddering elites to its core?

Should not the investigations begin? Jailtime for a few of these swindlers and crooks might be good for our country?

I don't expect Eric Holder to pursue any of these crimes. This has been a shortcoming of this Administration, to be honest. Nobody has been indicted or prosecuted for their crimes. And there were crimes, even though people will argue it was a technicality that brought the country's economy to its knees.

A little fear in the $3000-per-night suites and boardrooms would be a healthy change of course. Jail is a great equalizer. The two-tiered justice system needs to be corrected. The arrest of the IMF chief is a good start.

the fact the strauss kahn is being aggressively attacked, while those other folks aren't, should make us think a little harder.

I don't expect Eric Holder to pursue any investigations. I was dreaming. Sorry. :-(

those folks haven't gone away.

still out there bringing the IMF to everyone.

Inner Party, and power is its own reward.

The proles are allowed to breed and exist only to be killed in endless wars or to be worn out and replaced like drill bits.

The Outer Party members, the knowledge workers, are driven to ever greater self-sacrificing efficiency on a canteen diet of lies, Victory gin and Spam.

Something smells fishy about the whole thing.

He tried the same thing in the U.S. and found out rape is not excused here. Then again, maybe it is on DU. :eyes:

how do *you* know of them?

is alleged to have taken place, according to the information available to you - ie. presumably, apart from the likes of DU, what you've heard on TV?

he promised to investigate himself and that settled it. People get away with all kinds of things in this country.

After all, God forbid the media doesn't have fresh meat to chew on. Then perhaps they may find that they have to report on the important stuff -- like tent cities for the poor, or infrastructure being ignored because the elites need more tax breaks to buy vacation homes...

You know -- report on news and stuff that affects the working class?

Timing is everything

We got until 2014-2015 to fry these fuckers.

And if Bush lives long enough we might even see him fried by the ever-legitimized International Criminal Court.

At least one of the heads of Chase, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch or UBS is going down, but it will likely be some underling that they can pin it on (because we know the top dogs don't actually run anything but hopefully we'll get their signatures signing off on the toxic mortgages, which the underlings would've been wise to get).

I'd love to see Geithner but I don't see that happening despite that he fucking started the thing. Deserves life imprisonment.

Predictions? Probably lowly Richard Fuld or his underling Bart McDade (Lehman Brothers). JP Morgan's Killinger. BoA's Kenneth Lewis maybe.

We need to get rid of Cumo before anything can happen though because he's in tight with Geithner, and as soon as the pillars start falling Cumo and Geithner http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/Article/571919/201105111839/Cuomo-And-Geithner-Skated.aspx">would invariably be implicated.

the administration doesn't crow about them. Just this morning I was looking over the Sandford ponzi scheme bust - second to Madow, but nobody's talking about it.

There have been several other busts that nobody's talking about. But we have to constantly hear this drone about Holder not doing anything. It's sickening but par for the course.

That would get anyone locked up, regardless of which organization s/he heads.

you can google strauss-kahn court filing & read the document.

i'm tired of posting it.

But if a bank CEO assaulted a NYC resident, I have no reason to believe they wouldn't be indicted as well.
