    Is The Ship Sinking?
    Are The Rats Leaving?

    Somebody's ship is sinking and some of the rats are leaving. But there are many corrupt ships in the sea and an unlimited supply of dastardly rats.

    It's the old "push one down-another one pops up" phenomenon, just like in any high-crime neighborhood.

    The Rars ARE leaving

    Fabulous February Financial Fever: by Dongchan Lee
    Why doThe Top Bank Executives Resignations – even including the potential resignation of Lloyd Blankfein, the CEO of Goldman Sachs, who has been the most notorious among all the most notrious Wall Street bankers in recent years – have no end in sight?
    It has been very noteworthy when you look at the trend of prominent individuals resigning, quitting or stepping down from their powerful positions.
    If you look at the pattern of what has been going on especially for the past few weeks, it is really alarming. The mainstream media coverage will give you absolutely no clue as to what is going on, not to mention that most of their coverages have been sluggish at best.
    Then there were
    The 6 trillion dollars in fraudulent bonds in Italy were siezed …
    the 15 trillion dollar scam – which is basically the total US annual GDP and the total offical debt of the United States – by big bankers has been exposed in the UK’s house of Lords for the past a few weeks.
    I hope more and more great news like this keep on coming up the financial world starting a great new age of revolution!

    As I pursue this, I find links to Benjamin Fulford and Henry Makow. I find both of them interesting, but they sometimes tell tall tales.
    There's no conspiracy here, folks. Just move along. These people are resigning to spend more time with their families.

    Right now, my view is that Brattleboro is
    improving by leaps and bounds
    getting better slowly
    staying about the same as always
    slowly going downhill
    rapidly falling apart
