FINANCE: Plane crashes galore

Air-traffic controllers seem to have a problem with sleeping on the job. It represents completely irresponsible individuals and total absence of oversight.

While these incidents are relatively localized, tremendous damage continues to be done with far reaching damages in another section of this country. That is the financial sector. Here are also individuals without moral conscience and the lack of their control and oversight results in irreparable damage and great misery for millions.

Apparently nobody recognizes or wants to recognize that the problem originates in the mushy, muddy and ever so flexible public accounting system. And if this is by design, then clarity and transparency is the death of manipulations that are required to keep the people ignorant and in line. Our course downward is guaranteed to continue unabated unless our so called representatives start now to make the fundamentally necessary changes.

Do you think they will?
