As in, "now dead". That era coming to an end is what this is all about. The excesses that are the result of that manipulation are being wrung out. They have done anything and everything to prevent it from going down, yet it has gone down anyway. The notion that governments conspiratorially manipulate markets is dead. As in, “now dead”.

The Fed just wanted to create enough fear to have the bailout bill pass, so Paulson's friends can continue to thrive. The media is clueless and went along and spread panic which worsened the crisis in September.

It's obvious the hippo (main streen) is being hypnotized by the butterfly (financial scum). But when the hippo wakes out of it, the butterfly will simply fly away to another victim. doc holiday, good comment.

Thus, beyond doubt, beware butterflies, trojan horses and snake oil marketing hype -- that's the frigg'n message here (being screamed by Yves) and if you don't think this hippo or whatever the hell it is, is not taking a crap in conjunction with this exogenous shock -- then your a bloody idiot!
