Dude, Where the logic dissapeared was the part where you said:
"I'm still rather confused by this, from what I understand the government is saying the following."
Talk about being alergic to "bullshit"
I don't get what you don't understand about his comment med, seemed fairly straight forward to me.
Why does the government need to borrow money from banks to lend to banks, why can't the banks just lend to banks.
Answer
because that way doesn't involve our taxes, taxes are going to rise and rise and rise to pay for this money that we gave to the banks, all of which seems to have vanished, its not going in the right direction to help the people out, its going straight into the pockets of fatcats,
everyone needs to stop playing their game, take a step back and realise that were going to get screwed no matter who its by. obama, bush, whoever, it doesn't really matter, their agenda is all the same, its just a different sales pitch.
stop fighting over who is the biggest asshole, and realise they are all assholes, nothing is going to get better until a total change takes place, but everyone gets so caught up in arguing over who is the biggest ass, (which is what they want, so they can distract you) that they can't see that its a relatively just a handful of people that are dictating to us, and the only way its going to change is when the american people stand up agianst their government together, the english against their government, and tell them how we want our country run.
We elect these people to serve our interests, which they are clearly not doing.
We don't need their new world order, we need ours.
