Opis

A thousand banks imploded after Bank of America took them over, infecting them with disastrous risk. Robust enterprises gasped for bailout billions after diseased AIG seized them, breathing its virus. We learn takeover empires are defenseless against viral contamination. The viral catastrophes of 2008 began with the takeover schemes "The Acquisitors" documents--schemes for subverting natural competition. The schemers plead for more regulations to stack onto failed regulations to hold their takeover empires together--and further evade competition. The documents describe anticompetitive horrors bound to recur if the diseased empires remain intact. Corporations "too titanic" that must have government money to survive "walk as zombies." How to taxpayers walk who hand the invalids that $250 billion and never even suggest they be dismantled?
