Wall Street's 'Check Kiting' is coming to an End

Written by Subject: Conspiracies
 
I’ve included a couple of links below that might be of interest to you. But the focus of my research over the next few days is the effect and the reasoning behind the halting of short selling. Here are just a couple of thoughts I have that will help guide my questioning and research.
 
-         What if there was a circle of  ‘banks’ that allowed their customers to ‘kite checks’ (when an individual, or multi-billion dollar corporation, is given money for a piece of paper in hopes that the piece of paper will be ‘good’ before it is charged to their ‘account’ later for payment)?
-         What if the ‘customers/clients’ were other ‘banks’ (financial institutions on Wall Street etc.)?
-         What if the ‘check kiting’ had grown soooo large that the cash required to sustain the ‘promises’ didn’t exist?
 
Naked Short Selling allowed for the creation of a ‘kiting bubble’ with no limits and no real collateral (counterfeiting).
 
(Derivatives is a secondary explosion 100's of times larger waiting on the sidelines)
 
Now,… there are libertarian minded people in our ‘free-market’ that have understood this for years and knew to legitimately "short" these financial institutions and make money on their understanding of the real value of these rip off artists’ company stocks. Sooooo…
 
These companies used their control of the government and the ‘free-market’ to halt short selling of their stocks. This caused them to jump in price and wipe out anyone that did know what they were doing (this is a free-market?).
 
In an attempt to make their ‘check kiting scam’ balance they need TRILLIONS of US taxpayer dollars (created out of nothing by the Federal Reserve) that will indebt unborn Americans for life and totally destroy the US Dollar and the American economy.
 
This is not an ‘if’ thing,… this is an ‘already happened’ thing.
 
I suspect that short selling will once again be allowed after Wall Street’s checking accounts are replenished with 'bailout money' and the ‘bad guys’ can position themselves to take advantage of the destruction of the US Economy in any number of ways.
 
My thoughts above on this is what is propelling my investigation over the next few days as I continue with my other duties. But I suspect that what I discover will be as simple as this.

Well, we all knew they blew it, the only question was how long it was going to take them to admit it. And given that the rule was only scheduled to last ten days at first, we might have endured the entire thing without so much as a "woops."
