Americans are Fodder Too, and the TSA is Keeping Score

Yesterday, in noting the American individual who wandered into North Korea, allegedly to join the North Korean military so he would not be fodder for the American military, I asked Aren’t All North Korean Citizens Simply Fodder?

Though I’ve known that Americans are fodder, also, for many years, being fed on by the State, the TSA is being rather more blatant about what type of fodder Americans actually are considered as.

The Transportation Security Administration has launched an internal investigation into an air marshal field office in Florida where supervisors are alleged to have used a crew assignment board to ridicule and keep score on women, gays and minorities, sources told CNN.

The board, resembling the TV game show “Jeopardy,” includes categories such as “pickle smokers,” “our gang” and “creatures,” which sources said were names used by managers for gay men, African-Americans and lesbians.

Doesn’t that just make you feel special all over?

Alleged TARP Good News

While the average American on the street understands that the TARP Program is an abject failure, bailout cop Neil Baroksky, who also understands that TARP is a failure, states there is a silver lining to the failure.

There was at least one bit of good news from Barofsky’s latest report however. He acknowledged that while the ultimate cost will still be “substantial” for American taxpayers, it will be less than originally estimated.

Though the cost is substantial, it’s less substantial, is good news?  Americans are supposed to take comfort in this statement which has no actual meaning?

And what about the coming second wave of mortgage resets?
