Banks Are Running Out Of Money
Banks are very quickly running out of Money. Governments are now having to prop up lame ducks with the reassurance of taxpayers money.

Fairly obvious if you see any form of media, its splattered over the news every day. Financial meltdown, in recession, bankrupt. Its common place for a banks to be going bankrupt or into administration these days.

Banks are running out of money. Bank debt in the UK is 300% of GDP.
Therefore banks are very unwilling to lend.

Think about it. Inflation is rising above the extent and many states are on a downfall.

Yes people are taking the money they have left out of banks and the stock market, and into antiques and works of art. I am.

As predicted Stock Markets around the world continue to crash. Huge profits are being made by greedy speculators selling short. It is these speculators who should actually pick up the tab. They are bringing financial misery to the whole world economy. Over the past decade banks have been swept into a whirpool of easy financial lending to bolster the world economies. Now the vultures have moved in to take the juicy pickings, while the whole national banking system is in turmoil, and world wide economies suffer. These parasites should now be brought to heel by governments. Why should they make billions out of other peoples financial misery?

No.

Their cronies are all running and ruining corporations and indeed entire governments, with cash to burn, so no. I disagree with this debate. The banks' buddies will bail them out. We, the people, need not do so at our own expense. Let the jack@sses do for themselves for a change, not at the taxpayers expense.

Factually, banks are not running out of money, they're simply not spending all of the money they have stockpiled. The government has been providing tons of extra cash, pumping it into the banking institutions in the hopes that they would loan it out, but the banks have refused to do anything but let it sit in the vaults.
