   A bit off topic. But, thanks, Ted. This comic made me laugh out loud. “Not being bankers” is the funniest punchline you’ve had in awhile.

   Yes, thank you Mr Wiz, for your in-depth analyses. I, too, look forward to seeing your comments and consider them legitimate information. It’s been awhile since your last post, I hope all’s well. Back to the topic: If memory serves, it was Clinton who gutted the Glass-Steagall Act, aka true banking regulation. That Act brought us out of the Wall Street/Banksters 10 year boom and bust cycle that existed for 50 some years prior to the Great Depression. Losing Glass-Steagall allowed the Banksters to run wild and create the subprime mortgage crisis. Since being replaces by the milquetoast Dodd-Frank Act and then severely weakened by TFG, it seems that history is repeating itself.

   Keith Olbermann does a decent job of explaining the whys and whatnot’s and especially the timing of the release. I was thinking the same way as you, and apparently Keith was, too. But,in the end it has more to do with the 14th Amendment and not getting Muellered than I realized: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-countdown-with-keith-olbe-99705496/
