Remember when we were part of Occupy Wall Street protesting banking atrocities -- student loans, no jobs, jobs with low wages, systemic corruption of the 1%, absolute corrupt of the .01%? This is just what we were talking about while everyone kept gambling in a rigged game.

Icelanders gather to demonstrate against their prime minister, Reykjavik, Monday April 4, 2016. PM Sigmundur
David Gunnlaugsson insisted he would not resign after documents

PM becomes the first victim of offshore holdings leak by hackers that were aiming at exposing Pres. Putin.
LONDON (April 5) - The leak of

Putin and world elite steal and cheat
Democratic socialist against bank corruption
(April 4, 2016) Russian dictator Putin is worth $200 billion. A billion is a thousand million. So while you have not cleared your first million, Putin has 200,000 times over. What's the big deal with these Panama Papers all over the news, and how is it relevant to ordinary folks?
Use the interactive developed by the ICIJ to find out the who's who in the data [of embezzlement, illegal tax shelters, shell companies, piggy bankers, drug dealers, arms brokers, presidential candidates...]
The leaked data not just exposes individuals who used one company's "offshore"

the service of Mossack Fonseca to register offshore companies. It is a
huge blow to the reputation of some major banks including HSBC and
Credit Suisse.More
This leak reveals the elites' tax havens. A leak
of 11 million confidential documents from a Panamanian law firm has
revealed the extent to which the world's rich and powerful use tax
havens to hide their wealth.
The documents, to which the BBC has had
access, show how a law firm helped clients launder money, dodge
sanctions, and evade tax. Among the papers are suspicious deals
involving a close friend of RussianPresident. The firm,
called Mossack Fonseca, says it has operated beyond reproach for 40
years and have never been accused or charged with criminal wrong-doing [until now].
