“When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - When you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - When you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you - When you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - You may know that your society is doomed.”

Ayn Rand. She takes forever to get her point across but she is right.

I’ve posted this before. Hunter was my 2nd line boss at MBNA about 20 years ago.

Never saw him, never got an email from him. Nothing ever needed his approval. He had a nice office that was only used by other execs when they were in from out of town. He was a whisper.

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

Honestly while I’m all for fuck China > Biden, it is kind of sad. He has made so much money, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he has very little (at least relatively).

Drugs aren’t free, and I just know people where a drug addict spouse ruined everything.

But my sympathy ends with the war we’re in for the future of America.

Not surprising; he's never (ever) been wanted for his mind, just his ability to facilitate connections with his old man and the other for-sale DNC hacks making the rules.

I was just thinking about how awkward it would be if he were actually in an office setting around real consultants/analysts. Like, would he bumble his way through pretending to know what was going on?

No-show, of course, makes much more sense and protects the deniability of involved parties.

Don't forget, guys. THIS BILL (that Biden brags that he worked as a whip for) led directly to the 2008 housing crisis.

To his credit, Obama did oppose it.

well, while we are on the subject what were some of the other "sensitive issues" that were examined?

Oh, I don't know.... Could it be a lifetime of plagiarism and lying about academic credentials? (He just did it again a couple of weeks ago too- again lying about his education. Even though he's been repeatedly exposed in the past. It's like he just can't help himself. And the MSM just feigns blindness.)

This is not surprising. MBNA was the TOP contributor over the years to Sleepy Joe’s political campaigns:

Moderate democrats must surely see that this utterly stinks.

Not talking about the nutters, just the people who have voted Democrat in good faith. Some must be having a #walkaway moment.

I used to work for MBNA and they are basically legal scam artists, perfect fit for the Bidens.
