Fed Releases Documents Detailing Which Banks Used The Emergency Discount Window During The Crisis (http://www.businessinsider.com/fed-release-bank-emergency-lending-discount-window-31-2011-3)

Federal court forces disclosure, eventually the truth will come to light.

I would venture to say that 90% of America has no clue about what you just posted. Slowly, people are starting to wake up. The question is when this whole ponzi system collapses, will the people realize who did it? Unfortunately, my guess is probably not. As usual, the sheep will blame the "free market" and not the moron central planners that produced this mess. The idiots in DC will continue to find more ways to screw up our economy and milk the people dry in order to keep themselves in office and keep their corporate/banking sponsors happy.

We've scratched the surface, now let's dig a little deeper:

Bill Text - 112th Congress (2011-2012) - THOMAS (Library of Congress) (http://www.thomas.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c112:H.R.459:)

Found this article in the Irish Times on stress testing of banks and it's a bit vague and I wonder what the banks over here had to go through during the stress testing .

More fun to read is "The Creature from Jekyll Island"

The Banks in Ireland failed for the most part, so one might say they were completely stressed out.:D

Jungle,

Creature From Jekyll Island is a great book, a must read for everyone. I have to laugh at all the outrage at Wall Street from the public. Ask someone why it's OK for the same Wall Street bankers to control the money of the US (under the illusion of being "federal"), and you'll get a nice deer in the headlights look.

Interesting that we were propping up both European and Libyan banks.

I am sure there is a perfectly logical explanation, but I have so far failed to find it.:D
