Fed clears China's first US bank takeover

Postby Z00 » Thu May 10, 2012 2:02 am

A foot in the door? I don't like it!

The Fed said Wednesday that the ICBC proposed acquisition, which is "relatively small," would not have much of an impact on the banking market.

I STILL don't like it.

China probably sees more US gov't tax dollar giveaways to the banks again so they want in line.
Always drink upstream from politicians, they tend to foul things up.

I think it's time to start learning mandarin.
We need to stop selling our country to the rest of the world.
Switch to the ADR system like everyone else.
