When our government decides what should be
prosecuted or not by the rule of law, it should be dealt evenly
throughout the legal system. When exceptions are made, we have begun a
downward slide, respecting less and less the rule of law (If they can
get away with it why not me, if I know the right people?).
Cronyism has become the way of life in
Washington but when a handful of people and corporations all but destroy
our economic system and have so much influence nothing is prosecuted ,
our system of justice has lost its credibility. Unfortunately in the
banking and financial industries, that is exactly what we are seeing.
With the state of our economy and knowing how we got here, why are the
top executives not being prosecuted for the obvious mishandling of our
nation’s wealth? We are not seeing any legal pursuit to expose the top
corporations and executives responsible for this economic disaster we
are living through.
As I have searched for answers for the lack
of prosecutions which I believe is the greatest problem facing our legal
system, I came across an investigation of how the cronyism has gotten
to a point of unbelievable proportions. This will blow your mind!
This may reflect on the current
administration but all these economic problems went down in the Bush
administration and there were no high level prosecutions during that
administration either. So don’t just point at this administration, it is
a system of cronyism pervasive through out the entire political system.
The largest of Washington influences pretty much have a green light to do what ever they want.
As we sit and watch our sports, TV shows, and
all the other distractions, our nation is experiencing some of the
greatest tragedies ever facing us and there is no out cry, that can be
heard nationally, to stop this flagrant, in our face, lawlessness being
perpetrated on the American people. Folks, as we stay distracted from
these major problems, we will wake up one day and realize our nation has
been compromised to the point of economic collapse. If you think that
is not possible, you have already been duped into believing everything
will be just fine, it will just go away and fix itself. I doubt if many
of my readers believe this but there are a great many of our citizens
truly have no idea how precarious our economic system is.
