Smoking Cigars By A Mountain Of Napalm | Zero Hedge: "This gap between rich and poor has grown to its widest since the Great Depression… and I would argue in many ways since the feudal system.Yup. I pointed it out here among other places.
Obviously this isn’t a tirade against wealth, but rather the massively disproportionate benefits realized by a tiny elite at the expense of everyone else. And it exists because there is no separation between Bank and State. As Henry Ford said,
“It is well enough that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.”
Well, it’s happening. People might not fully understand how central banking works. But they know there is something very rotten in the system.
And they’re starting to realize that it doesn’t have anything to do with a single party, or an individual. Even in the Land of the Free, more voters than ever are disgusted by both parties and identify with neither.
This is fundamentally what’s happening in Ukraine. People understand the system is rotten to its core– that a band of criminals has taken control, and that ‘elections’ will only serve to put a new band of criminals in control."
