CNBC- an alternate universe
For 8 years they were the cheerleaders of an economy based on the entirely false premise that wealth can be created by destroying it and borrowing to fudge the numbers. But CNBC seems to have given up on getting ordinary persons to "invest", thereby allowing predator traders to take their money and is going after those with still a little money left.

Today they said that Obama is "raising taxes!". That's code for he's allowing tax breaks for those making over $250,000 to expire.

The cannibals are eating the cannibals now.

they are continuing to eat us (the people who are too little (balance sheetwise) to matter)
