12 deadly signs Wall Street's 'Conspiracy of Weasels' killed Obama's reforms,,,

ARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (MarketWatch) -- Financial reform is D.O.A. Window dressing. What's next? An implosion? Yes, a depression. Dead ahead.
Scott Adams warned of this trend in "Dilbert & the Way of the Weasel." Forget competition. No, capitalism breeds monopolies, it's a "financial system designed to transfer money from lesser weasels to greater weasels. Someday, if everything goes according to plan, one supreme weasel will have all the money and everyone else will be his or her domestic servant."
Until then, 99% of America's wealth remains concentrated in Wall Street's "Conspiracy of Weasels." They know only one thing, blindly "follow the money. If you took the same amount of money" traded daily on the NYSE, "sealed it in drums and dropped it in the ocean, 4 billion weasels would drown just trying to be near it."

If the article is an accurate forecast, then batten down the hatches. As a member of a local government council, I see this as making my position is more important than ever, and more difficult.
Someone can now proceed to talk me down before I resort to posting links again to Zeitgeist!
