“You knew what the banks were doing and yet were touting it for months and months – the entire network was. And so now to pretend that this was some sort of crazy once in a lifetime tsunami that nobody could have seen coming is disingenuous at best and criminal at worst.”
– Jon Stewart to Jim Cramer

  1. Hyperinflation is the necessary step to help the average American out of trouble. When hyperinfation takes place, old debts such as credit card debts, and mortgages get paid off very quickly, as the old debt grows slower than the rate of hyperinflation. Fixed mortgages will make the bank lenders cry, but the average person who is mired in debt over their heads will be free. Sure, they will be broke, but not being too much in the hole will put the average person in a better spot than before. And when the economy stablize again, they will now have owned their homes that they were worried about not being able to pay even the interest on the mortgage before. People will own their cars that they are financing as well. So while they will have no much of a savings, this should be of a little concern since most middle class people don’t have any savings, and even if they do, their debts are bigger, so in total, they will gain.

    I am hoping that hyperinflation can come and bring my student loans, credit card debts, mortgage, and car loans out of the way.

  2. I think John Stewart does a good job with what he’s supposed to do which is entertain us! The fact that he uses politics to make us laugh is his forte.
    I agree with JDS this has nothing to do with getting things done, and I’m afraid that it does not illuminate the un-illuminated much. If I watch Stewart it’s for the laugh, (which does have great merit in my book) getting things done is why I am on this site.

  3. Personally, I think they’re ALL a bunch of showboating hacks……. starting at the top, Obama, and working the way down the list from the Hollywood do-nothings, the talk radio-talk TV do-nothings down to the locally affiliated talking heads.

    The fact is, it happened! It’s HERE. It’s HAPPENING and it’s destroying lives.

    So blame who you need to blame to get your ratings, argue with who you need to argue to get your ratings, praise who you need to praise as being the better liberal or the better conservative, etc.

    As it is, through this entire horse and pony show so far, it seems that nothing is being done about it from either end or either side, regardless of who, what or where you may be. At least that’s what I sure am seeing…..

    God help us all. Or Allah or Buddha or who/whomever you need to believe in, in order to make things better in your own little life.

    Thank you for your time. Have a nice day! 🙂

  4. Perhaps Jon Stewert is the new face of a re-invented 4th estate? Which news services these days or fast-disappearing news papers could be counted on to dredge up the truth, and confront the criminal cabal that has stolen our futures?

  5. Why didn’t Stewart play the flip flop of Cramer on Geithner, one week Cramer was accusing Geithner as the central figure in the sub-prime fraud collapse then the next week he’s supporting him, obviously he was “gotten to” by his superiors.

    I’ll tell you why, because Stewart is a cool aide drinking liberal with a liberal political agenda, and the agenda du jour is to chase the American investor public out of securities and into treeasuries to support & promote a liberal Obama agenda-mean while the state is inflating the money supply by trillions which will ultimately result in hyper inflation.

    I see Cramer as an honest guy that tells it as he sees it but is often fooled by criminal sociopaths like Bernie Madoff & Hank Paulson, even so I think he’s entertaining & gives some good advice which I take with a grain of salt.

    Stewart on the other hand is a pure liberal propagandist of the worst kind, the subtle hidden propaganda, the propaganda hidden in comedy parady & sarcasm of course neither one of thse guys would be allowed on TV if they told the American people the real truth of our financial condition-like out $100+ trillion in unfunded Social Security & Medicare liabilities, you wont hear either of them mention that looted Socialist anchor around America’s neck.

  6. I watched the Daily Show and I was quite impressed with Jon Stewart and How seriuos the show was not only that but his questions reflect many of us who are quite discussed by the lack of investigative reporting by the press? What has happened? I have to look to the web to find out what the press is not reporting. We need more Woodward and Bernsteins during this time not less to find out who know what, when, were and why? I also wonder about the future of this country and its morals? Why does it have to take Stewart some of these hard questions to those who supposely are in the know about the finanical markets.

  7. I find it rather disingenuous of Mr. Stewart to suddenly attack Cramer and his CNBC colleagues only after Santelli (Rick) and Cramer accuse President Obama and his administration of exaccerbating and escalating the demise of our economy through their policies. Strange he never opened his mouth during any other time since October ’08 to publicly villify that bunch. While I am NOT trying to defend traders who are influencing the public by espousing their opinions each night, I simply want everyone to remember that Cramer is a card-carrying, $100,000 (perhaps more) top level contributor and member of the Democratic party. He campaigned for Obama. Yet, now that he airs his belief that Obama and his cronies are putting their stamp of demise on the economy, he becomes fair game for Democratic pundits public crucifixons. We are truly witnessing strange days in American politics. If the Democratic media has lost its’ 1st ammendment rights, I suppose we can all rest assured that our’s will hold no sway as a defense of public comment or concern.
