“This crisis was caused by the irrational behaviour of white people with blue eyes, who before the crisis appeared to know everything and now demonstrate that they know nothing.”

He added: “I do not know any black or indigenous bankers so I can only say [it is wrong] that this part of mankind which is victimised more than any other should pay for the crisis.”

-President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Brazil



ok...can someone tell me what part of this isn't true???



yellowrose,

Every bit of what he said is true. I just don't think he was talking directly at the United States of America.

Bank of America for example, is neither owned by Americans nor the Chinese...

It is owned by the blonde, blue eyed Swiss!

Actually, BofA was one of the banks that could have held its own fairly well. It was not until they realized the treasure trove of "assistance" that was available and the potential growth from buying up other banks that they joined everyone else under the knife. It was buying up those other failing banks that put them in peril.
