Corrupt Obama makes predictable about-face on Goldman Sachs bankster crooks, now praising them as "very savvy businessmen"

Obama softens stance on Wall Street bonuses
US president says leading bankers are 'very savvy' and says having wealth is 'part of the free-market system'
(Guardian) -- by Andrew Clark --

President Barack Obama has praised the bosses of Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan as "very savvy" and insisted he does not "begrudge" them their success and wealth, in a significant softening of the White House's attitude towards multimillion-dollar Wall Street bonuses.

Once a staunch critic of outsized pay packets, Obama adopted a strikingly consensual tone when asked this week about a $9m (£5.8m) bonus awarded to Goldman's Lloyd Blankfein and a $17m (£11m) payday granted to JP Morgan's Jamie Dimon.

"I know both those guys, they are very savvy businessmen," Obama said in a interview with Bloomberg's BusinessWeek magazine. "I, like most of the American people, don't begrudge people success or wealth. That is part of the free-market system."...

Although the White House denied any changed in direction on the issue of bonuses, Obama's comments were far less strident than his past condemnations of rewards on Wall Street. Shortly after taking office last year, he described bonus payouts by banks as "the height of irresponsibility" and said it was "shameful" that banks were paying "lavish" compensation in the middle of an economic crisis...MORE...LINK

About Libertarian Nationalism

Nationalists United In Liberty

Crass, hyper-materialistic, internationalist ideologies such as Imperialism, Marxism, and their synthesis bastard offspring, Globalism (aka neoliberalism/neoconservatism) have ravaged and ruined dozens of nations, murdered hundreds of millions, and are systematically devouring and destroying the world around us. They've now set their gun sites on the United States, the American people, and the U.S. Constitution.

This inhuman state of affairs must be brought to an end. But how? Left-wing world government advocates have an answer: "More of the same, only bigger."

But we've already seen how that ends: The Gulag, the Holdomor, mass murder, genocide, plunder, and the economic enslavement and national destruction of the "bourgeoisie" and "deplorables" at the hands of their revolutionary vanguard "superiors"; the evisceration of the national rule of law designed to protect the People; the piling of debt upon debt to enrich the crony elites and enslave future generations; and the systematic, deliberate destruction and plunder of the nation until there's nothing left to ravage.

If Americans aren't for their own nation, who will be? If the People aren't for the Constitution and rule of law that protects them, there will be no rule of law, or protection.

Just as the individual can't survive alone in the world without identity, structure, legal protection and an organized support system -- especially when up against wealthy, well-organized, malignant predators and the crony state machinery of their totalitarian ambitions -- so too the nation can't survive when up against the same gang of killers and nation-wreckers of the Globalist juggernaut, especially with factions of corrupt or compromised political class and propaganda collaborators functioning as operatives, and looking to enrich themselves by selling out the People and the nation to the Globalists for relative peanuts.

Now is the time to stand against the totalitarian "Chosen-Elect" internationalist plutocrats, oligarchs, and misanthropes of the Globalist juggernaut, and for the nation, the Constitution, and the People. "Later" will be too late. -- Chris Moore
