Proponents of the world’s biggest economic talk shop insist they have the best interests of the planet and its people at heart. But why so much secrecy and over-the-top police presence every time they meet?
I totally agree with Ack's statement, except for the part in which it is stated that the "American media downplays these events". The American media doesn't downplay; it completely ignores. Hopefully America will react to the buffoonery by the current administration during the mid-term elections in November. Additionally, when did Michael Moore become a financial wizard? I can believe village idiot, but not financial wizard. I must have missed something somewhere along the way.










I think if the american public had been given the opportunity to vote on the rediculous bailout it never would have passed.Apparently the U.S. is free only to a certain point. Money appears to be the borderline of the voters rights.Of course the american media downplays these events as needed and most of the voters can tell you what Mariah Carey or some other idol had for supper last night but they have absolutely no idea what G-20 is.So they sit back and wonder what is on t.v. tonight while their wallets get thinner and thinner as time passes.Life goes on as usual and gradually the working fool loses everything he has worked so hard for.I can only imagine what new hardship will surface as a result of this G-20 summit and how much more the public will put up with before they tell Washington they have had enough.
