As a small business owner I'm not getting a bailout, in fact which small businesses are getting bailouts to your knowledge.

As far as I can tell only big business gets bailouts, to big to fail, does that sound familiar?

But that was what I was saying, you are not getting a bailout so you make noise, how else will you get a bailout or at least try?

So the bank can either go easy on the small business owner or ruin them then re-finance a new operator which is decked up.

I was on the side of the small business owner, probably hidden in my sarcasm

Youve been heavy on the doom threads lately, so in your opinion what's the end game, what do the tptb have to gain by forcing the peasants into a revolution ?

Money and power of course what other commodities do the TPTB trade in?

Just imagine how much market share the big guys are going to pick up once all the little guys are out of the way.

And they didn't have to pay a nickel in M&A; in fact the taxpayers are giving them money to bridge their own gaps.

My bad the sarcasm went straight over my head, one thing is for sure the banks will tighten the noose and profit regardless of who goes bankrupt.

Yes indeed this is a big business wet dream.
