Informative poster, but it misses the central point - that this financial crash was orchestrated by the bigger banks (ie; the ones who both created the toxic financial products and stacked the government with their guys: see Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan) so they get to buy up the cheap banks for pennies on the dollar, thus consolidating their position.

Flag FlaggedThe big banks and Freddie Mac (& to a lesser degree, Fannie Mae) have successfully stolen this country. When corporate money is defined as "political speech" protected by the Consituttion, then the true political speech of citizens is drowned out, oever-shadowed by the influence of those who can place and keep the politician in power.
The banks can ive sweetheart deals to friends and relatives of the politically connected. They can and do buy the turned head from regulators and enforcement of the law is transformed into finding innocent scapegoats to take the fall for the crimes of the influential.
We once had a government run by citizens. Now we have a government ruling over subjects. When I see a "NO PUBLIC RESTROOM" sign in the post offiice, it is clear to me that the bureaucrats believe they own the government, which exists not to serve the citizens of this country, but to serve their own selfish interests.
That mentality is rampant among politicians, government employees and big business. The goal seems to be to wipe out the middle class and make them wards of (subjects of) the state, like those who are dependent on the mutitudinous forms of welfare.
I wonder how many people see it this way. I suspect many but many more will as time passes and events unfold.
Our forefathers, so many of whom died for liberty, would not be proud of what is happening now and how Americans are passively accepting economic and cultural slavery in exchange for crumbs.
