Big Money Tabs Romney & Obama
Big Money Tabs Romney & Obama
BUT THE REAL INDICATION that Romney’s got the nomination sewed up
is Wall Street’s hedging their bets between Mitt and Obama. SOME CALL IT ‘HEDGING YOUR BET’ (while others call it ‘playing both sides.)Goldman
Sachs, Citigroup, Credit Suisse Group, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan Chase have
already contributed over $1 million combined to
Romney’s campaign coffers. Fundraising receptions
for Mitt at $2500 per plate are also on Wall Street's menu .JPMorgan’s CEO
Jamie Dimon, Stephen Schwarzman, co-founder of the Blackstone Group, brought in
beaucoup bucks for Mitt’s drive to the White House in two fundraising dinners
held in NYC last winter. View Entire Story Here & Here. source:
Mitt Romney: An Obama neo-socialist in
disguise?
Perhaps you find it odd that Mitt Romney is proposing to give the top one
percent an $82,000 tax cut above and beyond the full extension of the Bush tax
cuts. And perhaps you find it very odd that that makes Romney’s plan by far the
most progressive tax plan in the Republican
race.But you have to keep Romney’s audience in mind.In Friday’s Wall Street
Journal, Kimberly Strassel criticizes Romney because he “wants
Americans to know that he is in the tank for the middle class.” Romney “is
following Democrats down the class-warfare rabbit hole,” she writes. “These are
mistakes Ronald Reagan would never have made.”In Forbes, ex-Reagan
administration official Peter Ferrara puts the same point more strongly. “Cowed
by President Obama’s class warfare rhetoric, Romney promises to eliminate taxes
on capital gains, interest, and dividends, only for middle income Americans,”
Ferrara writes. “He says he would do that because they
were the ones most hurt by the recession, not the wealthy. But effective tax
policy does not distribute tax cuts based on who ‘needs’ a tax cut the most.
That is Obama neo-socialist class rhetoric.”Put differently: In elite
conservative circles, Romney “is following Democrats down the class-warfare
rabbit hole” with an economic plan based on “Obama neo-socialist class
rhetoric.” Recall, again, that Romney’s plan extends all the Bush tax cuts and
then piles another tax cut that would substantially tilt toward the wealthy on
top. The simple fact that he’s attempting to sell it as a measure for the
middle class is, in these conservatives’ minds, a betrayal.I largely agree with
Ross Douthat that liberals are overstating the degree to which the
Republican primary battle is hurting Romney. But this is a more concrete cost.
Romney has been lured into offering a very large tax cut for the top one
percent at a time when Americans are very supportive of the opposite:
increasing taxes on the top one percent. Whatever you think of the economics of
the two positions, Romney’s tax plan is going to make life a lot harder for him
in the general election. But it’s a tax plan that he had no choice but to
offer, and in fact a tax plan that may yet prove to be too moderate for a
significant portion of the Republican base. source:

Published 1976
Chart 1 reveals
the linear connection between the Rothschilds and the Bank of
England, and the London banking houses which ultimately control the
Federal Reserve Banks through their stockholdings of bank stock and
their subsidiary firms in New York. The two principal Rothschild
representatives in New York, J. P. Morgan Co., and Kuhn,Loeb &
Co. were the firms which set up the Jekyll Island Conference at which
the Federal Reserve Act was drafted, who directed the subsequent
successful campaign to have the plan enacted into law by Congress,
and who purchased the controlling amounts of stock in the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York in 1914. These firms had their principal
officers appointed to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors and the
Federal Advisory Council in 1914. In 1914 a few families (blood or
business related) owning controlling stock in existing banks (such as
in New York City) caused those banks to purchase controlling shares
in the Federal Reserve regional banks. Examination of the charts and
text in the House Banking Committee Staff Report of August, 1976 and
the current stockholders list of the 12 regional Federal Reserve
Banks show this same family control.

The J. Henry
Schroder Banking Company chart encompasses the entire history of the
twentieth century, embracing as it does the program (Belgium Relief
Commission) which provisioned Germany from 1915-1918 and dissuaded
Germany from seeking peace in 1916; financing Hitler in 1933 so as to
make a Second World War possible; backing the Presidential campaign
of Herbert Hoover ; and even at the present time, having two of its
major executives of its subsidiary firm, Bechtel Corporation serving
as Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State in the Reagan
Administration.
The head of the
Bank of England since 1973, Sir Gordon Richardson, Governor of the
Bank of England (controlled by the House of Rothschild) was chairman
of J. Henry Schroder Wagg and Company of London from 1963-72, and
director of J. Henry Schroder,New York and Schroder Banking
Corporation,New York,as well as Lloyd's Bank of London, and Rolls
Royce. He maintains a residence on Sutton Place in New York City, and
as head of "The London Connection," can be said to be the
single most influential banker in the world.
