Attack of the Zombies

Bail-outs are charity for billionaires. They rob "the people" blind. Government bail-outs force the poor and middle classes into a type of slavery – a situation where a lot of their money and work effort go toward enriching multi-national corporations and the super-rich. These criminal gifts for Big Business constitute a savage attack upon society by robber-barons and plutocrats.

Conventional wisdom argues that these trillion-dollar government rescue packages "save the economy". The intellectual geniuses of today's world say that these mega-companies are "too big to fail" and thus bail-outs by Big Brother are necessary "to prevent a depression".

But these are lies. Even if the claims were true, the thievery from, and resultant enslavement of, the masses would still be morally depraved.

But the reality is no business is too important or big to go out of business, and all of them eventually do. Moreover, bail-outs cause financial depressions – not cure them. They rob the poor, enrich the already-wealthy, increase corruption, misallocate resources, diminish productivity, cost society a fortune, and expand tyranny. Bail-outs are unnatural acts which generally devastate the economy and impoverish the entire nation. Only the fat cats benefit.

Studies show that stealing from 99% of the populace to help out the upper 1% also results in a general decline in income and wealth. It especially harms the bottom 50% as it radically increases inequality. This wholesale robbery of the population also keeps alive failed companies which need to go bankrupt and be replaced by competent, successful, profitable ones. By making extraordinary and artificial efforts to keep “zombie” companies alive – which already pay poor wages to the poor and working class – the economy is further depressed.

The majority of all taxes are paid by the poor and middle classes, so when parasitic giant companies – along with their millionaire and billionaire owners – are allowed to rob and prey upon the bottom 90% of income and wealth, this directly and indirectly increases injustice and inequity in the world. Corporate bail-outs are almost entirely charity for millionaires and billionaires. This outrageous evil needs to stop.
