@Problem Is – Max didn’t “have time to read the 150+ comments” either and didn’t read yours. (j/k)

Hey Max,

I don’t have time to read the 150+ comments so maybe some one already mentioned this. You could make it more clear about what Brown and Darling’s responsibilities were in this.

It is Darling’s job to regulate the banks that operate in the UK including foreign banks. So if Ice Save operated in a fashion that was criminal or in violation of UK banking law… then it is DARLING AND BROWN’S FAULT UK citizens lost money. Not Iceland’s.

Just like the US where Swiss bank UBS committed major fraud. It is the fault of Ben Bernak-ster and the Fed, the FDIC and the SEC that UBS operated fraudulently IN THE US.

It is US regulators responsibility to make sure foreign banks follow the rules.

Brown is covering his own incompetent ass on this by blaming Iceland. You need to point that out more directly on this issue. It would have ended your interviewer’s questions right there.

It is Brown and Darling’s fault banks operating in the UK were not properly regulated.

Good interview though.

@jon,

Thanks for the information and I understand what you are saying about what America was then and what it is now. It is very sad.

My local paper printed an article written by a high ranking officer in the military telling of the high suicide rate in the military. This has been kept quiet but it’s finally coming out. This officer’s career is over, but he dosen’t care….he’s telling the truth of these poor soliders…..very sad day indeed. Compare this with the men you are telling about in your stories….criminal is what it is.

Acceptance of the transitory nature of time and perspective need not result in a bath-tub suicide. Rather: the gain of accepting one’s inherent transitory and changing status on the earth is one indicative of freedom and a viable mind.

@DanV:

Well, you keep trusting Volcker, he’ll be sure to hasten that day of ‘time reckons no longer’ for you.

@FS…”I wonder: when we die if time ceases to have relevance?”

Yes to the dead nothing is relevant in the scope of things as we know them while alive.

@FS”The ‘whiney’ character to the music defines wistfulness and loss: but great gain through acceptance.”

Yes it does conjure images of a distraught individual sitting in tepid bath water sobbing …getting frustrated and finally putting the gun in the mouth ahhh acceptance.

The ‘founding fathers’ had slaves. They had a pretense of religious fervor: it was a fundamental system of human marginalization for the gain of the few with advantage.

Having a perspective that includes an ‘objective’ god does not make one a better person.

Indeed, the hegemony of the church was used to grab land from indigenous people worldwide for the crown interests.
