I'm amazed


Wall street (Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley) and the banks (BOA, WFC, JP Morgan, Citi Group) have been fined over 100 billion dollars, for fraud.
Manipulating interest rates, selling fraudulent loans, complicity in Madoff scams, manipulating energy prices, forging home loan documents, Etc.
None of these fines have hurt their profits, they are now looked at as a "cost of doing business" and 99% of the company leaders are living in luxury with no penalty what so ever, in fact they receive raises and bonuses.

GM sold cars that they knew would kill people and the exec's got to keep the money, they may shell out a billion or so.

The IRS is a sham, manipulating tax collection to serve the current administration. The NSA is snooping in your bedroom.
The VA lied about treating our veterans and the bosses got bonuses.

Our healthcare system is in a shambles and has been even before Obamacare or whatever you want to call it. The pharmacys and healthcare companies an health insurance companies are raking in the tax payer cash while calling for a repeal to the law?

Verizon fined 25 million by FCC for billing cheating, Another few hundred billion or so listed here in fines and settlements from just about every corporation in the world. http://www.endgame.org/corpfines1.html.

Fannie mae and freddie mac lost billions while the execs took bonuses.

Taxes are crippling small business owners while these major corporations are looking to leave the country to shield themselves from paying American corporate tax rates.

So the whole world is cheating, lying, stealing, and getting away with it.

The liars, cheats and self appointed politician saviors are stealing tax payer funded healthcare, retirement and pay checks without producing any helpful legislation.

Americans are practically strip searched to fly, we have lost privacy.
The second and other Amendment's being trampled and all we can say is
"First let me take a selfie"![xx(]
Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    From a business point of view there are no such things as taxes fines or penalties. Its all passed on in the product. The govt can say and do as it pleases but the people are the ones paying the price.

    I laugh at those libturds who thought the billion dollar fines on bp for the gulf spill was a good thing. We are paying it. BP didnt lose a cent.

    Sad but true. That's why the suits in those companies need to be held personally liable. Criminally, and financially.

    Far too few people still "work" for a living and far too many lawyers make dealing with problems more expensive than in the past.
    I can remember a time when people and businesses dealt honestly with each other. Cheats and scammers were more likely to get physically "adjusted" rather than being sued.

    Mogley, be not amazed. Be prepared, as we know what is to come.

    On a lighter note, found any .22 ammo lately?

    Bottom line? They don't care about anything but the money and the power. They will do any thing and every thing to make more money to gain more power and IF they get caught, so what, the lawyers make money bailing them out and then they get back in the game and just raise their prices and we pay for it.
    The ones who go to Washington get away with crimes left and right, no one is held accountable and as long as the 47% get their FREE STUFF, they keep on getting more votes and we, the tax payers, get to do what???? PAY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Predictable and going as planned. BHO and the socialists vision in action. The election of HRC will complete the destruction.

    BTW. You forgot to mention the end of the borders as we know it.

    GM on the other hand is partially owned by the government, any fines will be passed on to the tax payers.

    Oh, I fixed your post, too.
