Mexico yeah but Argentina is amazing, I suggest you go, and parts of mexico are amazing as well.
Yes, they are beautiful countries, if you have money. I'm referring to the day to day life of the average peasent.
I'd love to vacation in either country.
They're both countries that went from first world to third world almost literally over night, and the way it happened is happening here. The bankers that run our financial policy are the same people that ran theirs. That is more than a coincidence.
We can also add greenland to this list now.

What bankers are you talking about? First of all we don't have financial policy. We have fiscal and monetary. The only banker I can think of who was somewhat involved in policy is Paulson.
Greenspan, Bernanke, and Geithner weren't bankers either.
Unless you are saying there is a secret society made up of Goldman Sachs partners that secretly runs the world, I don't know what you are talking about.

After leaving the Fed, Greenspan was a consultant to big banks, Geithner is the son of a former banker and finance guy for Ford, and Bernanke seems to be a total academic, so he is partially exempt from being a banker.

Ok. I just looked at Greenspan's wiki page.
Calling him a consultant is a stretch but ok. PIMCO is not a bank. He is/was? a senior advisor for Deutsche Bank (No one ever talks about if they even have any invovlement in the current recession).
NOT A BANKER
Geithner's dad, not a banker. Tim Geithner, not a banker either.
Bernanke NEVER even worked as a banker.
A banker is generally thought of as someone who works at an investment bank doing investment banking activities. Not consulting or cleaning the toilets.
So back to my original question: what bankers besides Paulson are you guys talking about? (remember banksters are evil)

There are a few families that own literally every country's central bank on the planet. You can see their designs clearly through the IMF, its sort of the link between them all.

I don't see why I need to go out and get tons of research to refute the opinion of the OP and some jackass politician.
Well...maybe you would learn something new?
I personally (and this is not mean to be an attack on you...just an attack on society in general) think this attitude is partly what is wrong with this country. We dont challenge ourselves to think critically and defend a position.
Time and again, I chose positions on here and in real life that are diametrically opposed to what I truly believe in (see CCW thread). I will chose that position just to argue with someone and then I will go and do research to support my position.
By doing that research I gain more knowledge about a position and more important why a person believes what they believe. In many cases I change my true opinion.
I need look no further than the abortion issue. I used to believe a woman or a couple had the right to terminate a pregnancy even if it was 5 mins before the baby was due. Mostly it was based on the fact that I am not for an intrusive government ( I always found it odd and still do...people that generally are for limited government..sure dont mind the government making a decision on abortion.
I still believe in the right of a woman to terminate 5 mins before birth...but by arguing pro-life stances it really helped understand where the pro-lifers are coming from and made me more amenable to compromise.
The other thing it taught me....NOTHING and I mean NOTHING is black and white.
I'm not sure why you and most of society lacks that curiosity..that inquisitiveness.

If you have the money is right...or even if you don't...
40% tax put on farmers and this is what happens. Americans are the BIGGEST PUSSIES.
Fortunately based on my knowledge and their actions they are not bombarded daily with and prescribed prescription zombie drugs as a large percentage of US citizens are on SSRIs.
