Finally Someone is Going to Pay

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange told the U.K. Times that an upcoming leak is going to cause the resignation of an executive at a major American bank.

It is speculated that the bank Assange is referring to is Bank of America, who stopped processing payments to Wikileaks recently. Apparently Assange has a 5GB hard drive from the exec, and apparently it's implications to the bank and Federal regulators are going to cause a shit-fit.
From Huffington Post

I say, keep makin' it rain brotha
Can anyone really argue that Wikileaks is bad if this hard drive really turns out to be a gold mine of high-level finance fraud or at least lack of ethics? I mean our government couldn't even force resignations after the banks collapsed. So if Wikileaks can finally bring to light all the bullshit a bank like Bank of America pulls behind the scenes, how is that wrong? It's called accountability, and if the government won't do it, as it is their task to do, someone fucking has to. Personally if I had any say we would have strung up all the executives at the major banks for fucking America in the ass. They fucked up their industry and laughed all the way to the bank when the taxpayers bailed them out. Bullshit.

The funniest part is the government's weak attempts to discredit Wikileaks. Labelling them as "terrorists." Trying to censure them whenever possible. It's laughable. I hope this shit keeps coming out. What kind of government do we support that doesn't even want a single person to see some of these documents? If they were running the country the right way, it wouldn't matter if we saw all these documents. But they aren't, and it's one of the biggest shams in our history, our government has become a oligopoly.

The rich run this country for themselves. Half of the Senators in the U.S. are millionaires, and the House is a lower percentage but still has a high number of rich members. If Wikileaks can at least try to show the general population how bad we're getting fucked, then maybe we'll do something about it, or not. As long as Americans can get a McDouble for a buck, they could give a fuck about anything else.

  1. like you recently discussed, a populace so in love with creationism and the millenia old bible is quite credulous when it comes to calling anything socially desirable communist or anything the wealthy in this country don't want us to like terrorist. you really think enlightened humans have any chance opening the eyes of the masses?? hopefully, but my money is still on mother nature when it comes down to it.
