Those sidearms won't help them if somebody wants them dead. Try removing a gun from a briefcase when you are being fired upon from point blank range.

Quote:

Henry Paulson, U.S. Treasury secretary during the bailout and a former Goldman Sachs CEO, let it slip during testimony to Congress last summer when he explained why it was so critical to bail out Goldman Sachs, and -- oh yes -- the other banks. People ?were unhappy with the big discrepancies in wealth, but they at least believed in the system and in some form of market-driven capitalism. But if we had a complete meltdown, it could lead to people questioning the basis of the system.?
That's a very creepy quote

But why would they fear a 'populist uprising' against their bank?

Whatever could they have done wrong to to even conceive something like that happening?

Well, whatever it is, it must be fucking big if they are going to switch to y2k armageddon mode.

A lot of economist believe the demise of the American dollar isn't far off. I guess they're worried that if that happens some Americans might hold them to blame...

Yeah that's what they are hoping for. That they get away with stealing trillions of dollars and the World doesn't hold them accountable for it. They almost pulled it off if it wasn't for that pesky audit the fed bill.
