Suspicious Deaths of Bankers Are Now Classified as “Trade Secrets” by Federal Regulator

It doesn’t get any more Orwellian than this: Wall Street mega banks crash the U.S. financial system in 2008. Hundreds of thousands of financial industry workers lose their jobs. Then, beginning late last year, a rash of suspicious deaths start to occur among current and former bank employees.  Next we learn that four of the Wall Street mega banks likely hold over $680 billion face amount of life insurance on their workers, payable to the banks, not the families. We ask their Federal regulator for the details of this life insurance under a Freedom of Information Act request and we’re told the information constitutes “trade secrets.”

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the life expectancy of a 25 year old male with a Bachelor’s degree or higher as of 2006 was 81 years of age. But in the past five months, five highly educated JPMorgan male employees in their 30s and one former employee aged 28, have died under suspicious circumstances, including three of whom allegedly leaped off buildings – a statistical rarity even during the height of the financial crisis in 2008.

POLL: Which Department would you eliminate in the Federal Government?

There is one other major obstacle to brushing away these deaths as random occurrences – they are not happening at JPMorgan’s closest peer bank – Citigroup. Both JPMorgan and Citigroup are global financial institutions with both commercial banking and investment banking operations. Their employee counts are similar – 260,000 employees for JPMorgan versus 251,000 for Citigroup.

Both JPMorgan and Citigroup also own massive amounts of bank-owned life insurance (BOLI), a controversial practice that pays the corporation when a current or former employee dies. (In the case of former employees, the banks conduct regular “death sweeps” of public records using former employees’ Social Security numbers to learn if a former employee has died and then submits a request for payment of the death benefit to the insurance company.)

Wall Street On Parade carefully researched public death announcements over the past 12 months which named the decedent as a current or former employee of Citigroup or its commercial banking unit, Citibank. We found no data suggesting Citigroup was experiencing the same rash of deaths of young men in their 30s as JPMorgan Chase. Nor did we discover any press reports of leaps from buildings among Citigroup’s workers.

It is time for the Republicans to stop reacting to failed Democratic positions on policy and become proactive in all matters.  Take for instance the debate regarding extending the Federal Unemployment Insurance Program.  The Republicans once again are merely reacting to the talking points of the Democrats.  When will they learn to be proactive.  Here is an easy solution that most Americans will understand and may actually bring a small level of respect back to the Republican Party should they have the manhood to even propose a creative and intellectually consistent idea for once this decade. 

1.         Acknowledge in the Bill authorizing the extension of Unemployment Insurance that the program is an insurance program which must be fully funded and is not an entitlement.

 2.         That the program can be fully funded without either increasing the current fiscal year deficit or the total Federal debt by merely reducing the budgets of all Federal Programs by the amount of the waste and abuse found by Mr. Tom Coburn and published in his annual Report. 

 3.         That the amount of unemployment insurance benefit be changed to reflect a decreasing amount of benefit of 25% for each 6 month period of time after the first year of insurance benefits resulting in zero insurance benefit after 3 years of unemployment.

 In addition, the amount of waste and abuse found in Mr. Coburn's report should be added up by department and legislation should be passed that require the suspension of any and all bonuses and raises for all employees in any department whose level of waste and abuse equals 1% or more of their budget.

 This issue is just another situation where the Republican Party has the opportunity to succeed or fail in their intellectual war for the future of this country with the progressives.

Obama and supporters are melting down ,as their lies may have finally caught up with them. There have been many and people forget, but with millions of insurance policies canceled and millions more to come the big lie about , " If you like your insurance you can keep it, period" , may have finally caught up with the Liar in Chief. Now, maybe Congress will impeach Holder and some others. Fast N Furious, in which Obama signed an Executive order stating Holder did not have to turn over information about that operation, IRS scandal, NSA Scandal, Benghazi murders, Military Chaplain harassment and persecution( Christian Only), EPA abuse of power, EO presidential abuse of power, Going around Congress, War on coal, (Which will start hitting everyone in the pocket book), gutting the military, Attacks on the morale of the military, e.g., unisex hat for Marines, Insurance lies and Obama care, which is not affordable, etc.  

Millions of American Families losing health care must stand up for their Healthcare Freedom

How strangely will the Tools of a Tyrant pervert the plain Meaning of Words!” Samuel Adams, January 21, 1776

For many of the 3.5 million American families that according to the Associated Press, the loss of their family health insurance came at them like a wrecking ball. Their very economic health and stability for their family members has been shattered because of a president who comforted millions of citizens with the one phrase which shall live in historical infamy: “If you like your health care you can keep your health care guaranteed and period!” Barack Obama – 35 times!

That one statement which as it turns out was a carefully plotted assault upon the comfort and trusting nature of the middle of the road America was used to plant the Trojan horse into the health care system like a deadly killer virus causing mass destruction. Now, 3.5 million families, much like you or your neighbor or co-workers are faced with the onerous choice of Obama’s one size fits all brand of engineered socialism or face possible excessive fines, liens against your home and in the end a surgical neutering of your own self determination and freedom. You have been obamafied!

Recent responses from readers as well as on conservative radio and in print have examined the horror and dismay that many families are facing as they attempt to deal with providing health insurance for a family member undergoing an operation, or a child who is faced with an illness or a female member who is suffering from breast cancer. Tens of thousands of examples of the gloomy prospects are pouring in, and yet in each one there is a solution.

Instead of worrying about what and when the congress will remedy this debacle it is clear that the solution lies with the family that has suffered this individual injustice. This is truly the point in the American experience when your neighbor, your distant relative and even your babysitter or church member can create your own distinctly American Insurance Freedom From Obamacare Campaign.

Imagine how the nation’s founding fathers felt at the beginning of the American Revolution and even months and years before. Sure there were writers and patriots in the colonies that were demanding justice from the British, which were largely ignored. Did that deter the common patriot who decided that his neighbor’s home that had been invaded time and time again by the British was not his fight? What about the British loyalists who were working to destroy the rights and freedoms which were God given to each and every American colonist member? These rights were stripped away by colonial government loyalists that cared more for the cruel boot and heel on their necks than the true essence of what freedom from continued oppression represented. These modern day sympathizers are the Obama democrats that stand with the socialist-in-chief and continue to mine the harbors of freedom.

With millions of Americans preparing to lose their health insurance to be forced into a government-run exchange, a Democrat pollster has called insurance companies "a fantastic enemy."  

“For the life of me, I do not understand why we as Democrats are not aggressively blaming that on the insurance companies,” Celinda Lake said on Monday during a media breakfast marking the release of the George Washington University Battleground Poll alongside Republican pollster Ed Goeas.

“We ought to say, The insurance companies are absolutely undermining this,’ and they don’t want to have policies that meet the minimum requirements and we’re not going to stand for it,” she continued. “It’s beyond me why Democrats don’t go after insurance companies for engaging in these practices. We’ve always said we’ll see what works and we’ll fix what doesn’t. Well, this is something we should fix.”

Insurance companies deserve their fair share of the blame for ObamaCare.  They went along with the scheme in the hopes the government would pad their profits.  But now, one can hope, they are begining to understand, they made a deal with the devil.

HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and White House knew of millions of Americans losing their coverage.

“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined." Patrick Henry, June 5, 1778.

Were you one of the six Obamacare enrollees, which according to Fox News, made it through on the first day of Obamacare while 700,000 got caught up in the avalanche of the launch disaster? Secret notes from an Obama administration HHS War Room meeting revealed only six people made it through the rollout gauntlet, while another 248 succeeded the second day. These unfortunate souls are now well aware of the sticker shock which awaits all other who must now succumb to the President’s purposeful lie, “"If you like your plan, you can keep your plan, I guarantee it!" - Barack Obama.

After a month, according to the Washington Times the actual numbers of enrollees remain a well protected mystery. What is known is that Rep. Darrell Issa, (R-Ca) chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, is enraged that America and the 2 million citizens who had their insurance policies terminated may be left in an Obamanized limbo. Subpoenas are sure to be flying fast and furiously from his committee to HHS and the White House to seek the truth.

Unfortunately for the 2 million of an expected 14 million individuals scurrying for affordable healthcare coverage, this is only beginning of their difficulties. With each persistent lie by Obama the stinging reality of its impact has cut at the very heart of American families and undermined their own economic and health freedom. The nightmare spiral of the president’s deception is just beginning.

Whether you are a young hard working family with children in Ohio, or a middle aged couple in Florida or an individual in Kentucky trying to live paycheck to paycheck, the vicious lie of Obamacare is strangling you no matter which way you try to turn. October was bad, but November and December will get worse.

Consider the dilemma that you and countless millions of Americans are only now beginning to face. You had an insurance policy that covered you and your family and your budget could make that work for you. It should have been grandfathered in, but it was not. As Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly suggested on her broadcast this week, the administration knew about those facts.

Now, the government mandate which was voted on by only democrats in both the House and the Senate has torn away your economic security blanket from underneath you. Where do you think you are going to turn to next for securing your family’s health and pay your bills?
