'Zombie' bankers feast on U.S. econ. from Raw Story Breaking News

Okay, so where are Zombie Street's hoops to dine? Where is Zombie Street's timetable of repayment for accepting $2 trillion from the Federal Reserve in emergency loans? Where is Zombie Street's proof it hasn't already started a "Great Depression" by its own acceptance of tax breaks above and beyond the original feeding-frenzy bill? And why does the U.S. government helping the Big Three automakers — but not Zombie Street — get labled "protectionist"? Why are the Big Three the "cry babies," yet Zombie Street gets no tough love for its bitching? Why not treat the Big Three and Zombie Street the same? Restructure their business systems!

Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, is unfortunately wrong now. Wall Street is not a "multi-trillion-dollar crime scene" anymore. It's a bloodbath. It's Night of the Living Capitalists.

Congress must do what traditional zombie hunters do during a zombie invasion. Aim for their heads, which means in this case, figuratively speaking, of course, jail their leaders. Or if that's too extreme, President Barack Obama come Jan. 20, 2009, could follow Sen. Bernie Sanders' recommendation for the second course of the feeding-frenzy.

"We should use the second $350 billion tranche to create millions of good paying jobs rebuilding our crumbling bridges, roads, culverts, schools and water systems. We can also create millions of jobs by moving away from foreign oil and fossil fuels and into energy efficiency and sustainable energies," the Independent Vermont senator said.
