"Corrupted by wealth and power, your government is like a restaurant with
only one dish.
They've got a set of Republican waiters on one side and a
set of Democratic waiters on the other side.
But no matter which set of
waiters brings you the dish, the legislative grub is all prepared in the
same Wall Street kitchen."
—ascribed to Huey Long (found the citation)
Here's the Reuters exclusive on the Bush boys
HT: FT Alphaville's Further Reading post
Mr. Long was Governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932 and U.S. Senator from Louisiana from 1933 to 1935.
Long was called "The most dangerous man in America" (though in private FDR said the MDMIA wasn't Long but rather General MacArthur)
Mr. Long was assassinated on September 10, 1935.
Another quote ascribed to Senator Long:
"Sure, We’ll Have Fascism in This Country, and We’ll Call It Anti-Fascism"There is something huge bubbling beneath the surface of daily news and events and I'm not sure what the hell it is.
I do know that it probably involves money, on the order of tens of billions of dollars, and that one area to keep an eye on is where money of that magnitude hangs out,
Eisenhower's military-industrial complex, but expanded to include intelligence community contractors and politicians.
And that there might be one heck of a short-sale opportunity coming up.
