  1. Well, from the info provided it sounds like poison but I’m sure the coroner will rule it either a suicide or natural causes.

  2. And another one’s gone, another one’s gone, another one bites the dust. Great song by Queen.

  3. Well I”m sorry to hear that this one seems to have died of natural causes. I like it a lot better when someone kills the son-of-bitches.

  4. I don’t think these bankers are all dying. I think they are just “dying” in the “news” so that when TSHF they will have already gotten their new government issued DL, new SS#’s, and new names where they can then transfer all their fraudulently obtained millions/billions that are sitting in the Cayman Islands that can then be used to live happily ever after while the 99% suffer through the greater depression. Just like I don’t think Rockefellers son died in a plane crash last year. They are just killing themselves off on paper and then living out the rest of their lives under new assumed names…like the government does for people in witness protection programs. Clearly the fascists have an easy enough time getting new “official” documents from their partners in crime in the government. Why would they kill themselves when they can switch identities very easily? I guess it’s possible that some of these deaths actually have dead bodies that serve to make the hoaxes more believable but the bodies were/are probably people who were already dead or were killed on purpose. Nothing would surprise me anymore. 😉

    1. A plausible observation Kevin. Hell, if they could dump Osama bin laden off the side of a boat 11 years after he died, and the sheep believed it, anything is possible. Cue “USA chant”!

    2. Hmm…You make an interesting point, Kevin. Never thought about it like that. Wouldn’t surprise me. Anything’s possible.

  5. Corporate plane?

    Since he died ‘on the job’, does that increase the death benefits for the family?

    Not that they really need it.

  6. He becomes president in 2013 and two years later, falls ill and dies on a plane. Yea right. What are the chances? Not buying it. He was likely poisoned. Especially since he was only 55.
