The following ad appears in the October 15th printed edition of the D.C.
daily The Hill, which is read in every Congressional office and by
thousands of others. It was distributed broadly in Washington and across the
country by LaRouche Political Action Committee activists. With the "deal" to
settle the shutdown simply postponing the deadlines for government funding and
raising the budget ceiling for a few months, the population, and the
members of Congress, are now fully aware of Obama's total agreement
with the radical Republicans that social security and Medicare must be
drastically cut, to service the continuing bail out of Wall
Street.
For background on LaRouchePAC's escalation in the
campaign to stop the Obama/Wall Street campaign for genocide in the United
States please see Mr LaRouche's call to "
Stop Genocide Against American
Citizens! "
Mike Billington
We Stopped Obama’s Unconstitutional War in Syria Now Stop Obama’s Wall
Street War on the United States of America
PASS GLASS-STEAGALL NOW!
The intention of the current operation to shut down the U.S. Government on
the part of Wall Street and President Obama, is to stop Glass-Steagall, and to
start a policy of bail-in, and even further draconian cuts to our living
standards, all of which will lead to an increase in the death rate of American
citizens. This was the content of the meeting which Obama held with leading Wall
Street banksters, including Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase; Lloyd Blankfein,
CEO of Goldman Sachs; and Anshu Jain, CEO of Deutsche Bank, at the White House
on October 2nd.
Obama, the Democratic leadership, and their Congressional Republican cohorts,
on orders from Wall Street, which thinks it owns our government, are going to
unleash absolute Hell on the American public. The government shutdown is the
biggest dog-and-phony show over. And yet how many otherwise honest Senators and
Congressmen have fallen for it, out of fear of the White House, and of those in
the leadership of their own parties, who are going along to get along with Wall
Street?
It is time for Congress to break with the Wall Street banksters, their stooge
in the White House, and their stooges on Capitol Hill.
Recently, Democratic and Republican Congressmen and Senators mobilized to
prevent Obama from launching an unconstitutional war in Syria without
Congressional authorization.
Now, where are the patriotic Democrats and Republicans who will act to defend
the U.S. population’s General Welfare against Wall Street? Where are the
Democrats and Republicans who have the courage and commitment described by John
F. Kennedy in his Profiles in Courage?
Franklin Roosevelt threw the moneychangers out of the temple by signing
Glass-Steagall into law. There are
bills in both houses of Congress to
reenact Glass-Steagall . Who will be
today’s Glass and Steagall, not just when nothing is at stake, but under
political combat conditions? Who is really serious about the future of our
nation?
It is not enough to lend one’s name as a co-sponsor to a bill to reenact
Glass-Steagall. It is necessary to cut through the fog of war, not to be
distracted, not to be diverted by the countermoves of the enemy, in this case,
Wall Street.
It is the American people who are too big to fail. It is their General
Welfare that must be promoted, not that of Wall Street.
Wall Street’s parasitical speculative activity is a cancer on the body
politic. It needs to be removed, not fed.
There is no other solution to this crisis. As Roosevelt said, “the only thing
to fear is fear itself.” Glass-Steagall must be reenacted now!
