Transparency is not TWITTER

Recently in the political vortex, it has been fashionable to champion "transparency"-----and the actual tangible improvements have been real, but disappointing----we have gotten TWITTER and streaming of press releases from our elected leaders....but not TRANSPARENCY-----

True transparency would reflect the debate of open meetings----the audio, and the video of the debates about the regulation of Wall Street; Open discussion of the pros and cons of various plans for health care reform. Open meetings on how the hedge funds would have all their transactions made in one open and transparent, and trackable, market system.

We're getting just the sizzle---not the beef. Stay tuned.

OpEd; On Pirates; On Wall Street: On Health Care; Compare and Contrast

Sometime back, our President had a terrible problem with some Pirates---well...they were Somali Pirates, and were intercepting vessels and hijacking them and...well...thumbing their noses at the international navies of the world.

Midst quite a bit of publicity....the US Navy was sent to the rescue, and the sharpshooters took action and knocked the Pirates off in one bold move. It was a bold lesson to be learned for all: When the US governemnt deals with Pirates, they will not tolerate being shaken down, lied to, stolen from etc, etc.

Reel the movie forward----Midst the furor of the AIG bonus scandal, the public erupts with anger at the move of the government to, with a wink and a nod, approve the bonuses to key AIG employees, even as the nation is dealing with the devastation that these employees caused---they are KEY employees? and because they are KEY, even though bad to the bone, we need to keep them in place. Just yesterday it was announced that after all the TWITTER about it, the administration will really not unravel the matrix of greed of Wall Street compensation that has resulted from deregulation, but will rather make some recommendations------One has to ask where all the boldness from the "Pirate Episode" went? Should he have called the Navy to intervene?

Ditto for Health Care-----Ya think the Wall Street pirates are tough? Wait till ya get to those in health care. It's a bad omen. Stay tuned.
