I smell an activist hoaxer like the Yes Men.  I think the BBC got duped.  He’s not listed in the FSA register:

Sh*t, the truth was told on BBC.

How do we sign up to be the traders?

Its the truth, no need to be stunned. 

dick durbin said roughly the same thing a couple years ago

he said “they, frankly, run the place” (meaning:  the banks run the US congress)

that this is some sort of yes men conspiracy is totally absurd

and i love how this guy argues that hedge funds are “smart money”

Rastani is no dummy, that’s how George Soros makes his fortunes.

Ooops.  I take back my claim that he’s an activist.

He’s actually a scam artist who does get rich quick FOREX seminars.  Pay a lot of money to get “insider secrets” and buy software.  Lol.

At the bottom of his own website is a photo of him with scam artist Guy Cohen.

Guy Cohen claims to have discovered and decoded a secret Nazi box!  And you to can learn the secrets within it and become a millionaire for a small payment of $$$$

If people get mad at his profits and his attitude, you should remember that he is just taking advantage of
unsound financial policies made by politician. So get mad and fix the political problem. 

A period in history will arrive, a secular dispensation, when we look back at the power that private capital employed to bend the arc of history and feel distraught by the many opportunities lost.

Even he looked surprised at his candor, but he didn’t retreat. He just kept going. People keep looking to their elected officials to change things but they’re controlled by the banks. Many of our politicians on the left and the right are millionaires – how do you think they got that money? By being nice and helping people? Not so much. Do we honestly think politicians want to be elected so they can help us? Not so much. Just look at the revolving door between our government and Goldman Sachs. They go from government posts where they change policy to benefit big banks, and then they quit and become lobbyists for Goldman. They want us to believe it’s a left/right issue, that we should choose our politicians based on whether or not they believe in universal health care or abortion. When will we wake up?

I love it. Nothing reveals the truth about the state of journalism today better than this right here. A guy comes on and just pops off with two insanely obvious truths about the way the world works and all the news people are just stunned.
This isn’t even Glenn Beck style conspiracy theory stuff here, its just plain old facts. Traders can profit just as much if not more from the bad times as the good, and your government is bought and paid for. Seriously, you can figure that out in two weeks just from reading a newspaper everyday.

“Time for Millennials to Take Control” http://paulglover.org/1005.html

Seriously? Ha. Again, the BBC got pranked by the Yes Men. And so did you.

Yeah but he’s right. They and their ilk unquestionably rule the world. So it doesn’t really matter who said it, it still needed saying.

Right. They own Obama, thus they own The Messiah and all in his domain.

Gee, it’s a video that the Occupy Wall Street gang and Glenn Beck fans can all watch together. I guess that’s a bright side.

Actually, this is a video we can all watch together. http://tinyurl.com/3mtgr6w

How can such injustice stand? Have we no decency? BURN IT DOWN!!!

People need to go to prison for fraud against the American people… then we can see if the executives at Goldman Sachs could rule their prison yard, instead of the world!!

Typical political Hack response. Let me connect the dot for your ‘red’ minded self.
Hank Paulson worked for W. Bush
Hank Paulsson did nothing for Lehman when they got in deep trouble, thus letting them default.
AIG got in trouble due when the housing bubble collapsed.
They were going in the same direction as Lehman, even worse.
But, Goldman Sachs had huge interest in AIG, as all of the Insurance they’ve bet against the Housing market is covered by AIG.
So, Goldman Sachs called one of their old boy (Paulson) to bail them out (AIG), knowing bailing AIG out is bailing GS out.
Paulsson then labored congress and create a scary atmospheric that if it isn’t passed,t here would be hell. They passed it, W signed it and the insurance money went to GS, to pay for a liability against a market they bet against to make profit.

So my ill informed political hack friends, Your congress is and Govt. is bought and paid for, but the guys who recognize this are not given a chance to the top, e.g. Ron Paul, and perhaps Kucinich.

Let me connect a dot too. http://tinyurl.com/3gby33t

The Obama Administration is a GS alumni employment program.

I’m sure the SEC will get right on that. FOR THE PEOPLE!!

Again, you sound like a political hack. Did you not read my response, you can’t counter it so you have to attempt the tit for tat crap. I have already said the Politicians are bought and sold. Go and do that with your other fellows, that would play red vs blue crap with you. Don’t be an ill informed moron, learn whats going on around you, not what drug infested Limbaugh tell ya.

How naive can you be?  You don’t see the connection between the Fed, the Treasury, and the large Banks…  once you see it who do you really think is calling the shots?

Yeah…  Just ask your friend Soros how dumb Hedge Fund money is…

Who was packaging up all those mortgages, saying they were triple A (while they were really triple F), selling them, while betting they would fail?? It wasn’t the Treasury or the Fed!!

Who does the Treasury turn to each time they need the Fed to print money?  Who runs the Fed and where do they come from?

I agree with your assessment, but I would ask the question, do you think that this administration is any different than the last when it comes down to the large banks?  IMO it’s kinda like “Meet the new Boss same as the old Boss”, except that the Administrations are only allowed to think that they are in control, if and when the need arises they are bought up to speed on how things really work.  Again I would ask, how does the government really finance it’s debt?

Does anyone remember the guy that worked at Goldman Sachs and was arrested for supposedly stealing software. Problem was, he helped design the software.

What did the software do you might ask? It could completely manipulate the market with instantaneous results. In the court, he stated that it was used to control the market. After that, the proceedings were made private.

If anyone thinks that the government and entities like GS and other high level market firms are not in bed together, just think of who all the high level government people are in the financial sector. Look at Paulson alone, he was allowed to pull $300 million out of GS without paying any taxes or penalties because he was going to work for the government. This was supposedly to insure no conflicts of interest. Hear that? No conflict of interest. Hmmm, not paying taxes on $300 Million would seem to be a conflict of interest.

Oh well, I am just a modest trader in PMs, what do I know about all that high and mighty stuff, maybe they really are not in bed together. You know, the Obama Regime, the Bush Regime, all those in DC are just looking out for what is best for us little guys right?

Now go back to sleep and let the government take care of you. The government is there to help don’t ya know.

Good catch and follow up, turk.
