"You're so far past the line that you can't even see the line! The line is a dot to you!"

The New York Times has published a draft of the Paulson plan. Interestingly, he plans to steal $700,000,000,000 from the people to give it to the happy few in the banking establishment.

Please note that democracy and the Constitution don't mean anything to these people. They are not trying to hide the fact that they are fascists anymore:

Sec. 8. Review.

Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency.

Chandler: You're right. I have no excuses. I was totally over the line.
Joey: Over the line? You... you.. you're so far past the line that you can't even see the line! The line is a dot to you!
(Friends, Episode 7, Season 4)

Remember what Jefferson said in 1802?

I don't think anything more needs to be said.
