  • Full investigation and prosecution or no RE-Elect.

  • Another agency that is supposed to regulate, that will inevitably become hijacked by corporations and banks.  Why not just let the banks fail?

  • Comment removed

  • "lol k we'll do it right this time" --the feds

  • Lol ..... this manipulation bullshit from the conservatives is getting really old really fast. They all are like, "FREEDOM!", but they don't finish their sentence .... what they really mean is "freedom to do a bunch of dumb shit with your money" and "If I don't support this then the lobbyists won't pay me" and then they say "Democrats do it too!" which every intelligent person knows is the very definition of fallacy.

    Good job, Mr President.

  • Doesn't mean dick for anybody.

  • Who narrates this?

  • @reversemortgagesaus Kal Penn.

  • Haha, this isn't going to work - it's just going to line the wallets of fat cats.

  • or the could have enforced the anti-trust laws already in place.

  • @worddunlap It's safe to say that the existing anti-trust laws have been quietly nullified and the entire paradigm of Due Process no longer exists.

    Every single New Deal law passed to prevent the very evils that beset us again are all gone or ignored. With Congress and the Supreme Court made vestigial by way of Lord Bush and Viceroy Cheney, the Power Elites rule through a puppet executive without let or hindrance.

    We're in a classic despotic tyranny which makes any surviving anti-trust laws moot

  • This is part of the problem but we have the solution in Cannabis HEMP -- What Wall Street Reform? All the powers on this Earth are money hungry. This is not news that the banks and people with power are greedy. It is only because of God and the Republic that we established on the Word of God given in the Bible do we have a Nation at all. APR4U One Nation under God.

  • Please do END Federal Reveres.

  • Did You (Obama) do end federal reverse?

  • Will Obama put End Federal Reverse on wall street?

  • All well and good to reiterate the crimes of the banks and the system. I'm not taking the bait on this.

    This so-called Wall Street Reform means nothing without the complete restoration of Glass-Steagall. This reform should not only feature restoration of Glass-Steagall but, dissolve all financial derivatives. To protect homeowners from the shockwave of derivatives destruction, Obama must forbid foreclosures on primary residences and protect renters from rent spikes. Make the bankers EAT this.

  • Hey MrMisteryellow1: What are you talking about? President Obama inherited this crisis from the previous administration. Why aren't you asking why the Republican majority didn't see this coming or why Bush et al didn't see it coming. President Obama is trying to steer the ship but conservatives have focused on obstruction every step of the way.

  • 130 people are Wall Street bastards!

  • The veils are being lifted. Your own strength in understanding and finding each other is the divine plan for peace. Fighting about everything sets us back and further from the truth. Information = light. Use your energy by finding what's right instead of wrong, then support it all the way.

  • The Government caused the Bubble, by low interest rates, Freddi and Feanni and too mich regulations under CLinton, Bush.

    Obama didnt see the crisis comming. Why should he know how to get out???

    Peter Schiff and Ron Paul and the Austrians School saw the crisis comming !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Like my dear friend Sylvia used to point out: "What is very upsetting is that the taxpayers bailed out the banks, but the banks never returned the homes to the people." Yes, now the reforms are coming down the pike, but when will the banks give the homes back to the people? Additionally, the interest rates that these "banks" charged was the main issue for many people, it would change overnight, a legal limit needs to be set for that as well, to make it a fair and transparent playing field.

  • I would have liked to have seen Elizabeth Warren head this agency. But, Richard Cordray has a pretty solid record. Maybe Warren will become a senator. Go CFPB!!!

  • Obama you got my vote!

  • @Faiibaii8

    Why

    Obama didnt see the crisis comming!!! Why should he know how to fix it??

    Search for Peter Schiff on youtube. and Ron Paul.. they saw the crisis comming which was caused by too much government intervention!

  • It was last year. Look this date.

  • Good! NO MORE bail out for fail banks!!!!

  • @ASLforever100

    but this is what obama is doing!!!

    Follow Free markets like Peter Schiff and Ron Paul and banks will not be rescured

  • This is hard to believe watching the documentary "Inside Job"... Obama appointed many financial executives who were instrumental in creating this massive problem to government financial regulation jobs.

  • President Obama, appoint Elizabeth Warren as Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Don't cave in to political expediency that would co-opt and marginalize the role of the CFPB in implementing real reform in our financial institutions.

    Do it as a recess appointment if necessary. This is important and will demonstrate that you walk the talk.  Anything less and you lose the mandate that elected you in 2008.

  • Thanks Kal Penn!

  • stop the hoa! my hoa wynchase crossing crandall texas 75114.dont purchase property in hoa communities and stay american!

  • it is about time,that somebody is thinking of the average working person,than the rich people.just because the working man is not loaded down with money,does not make it right to take advantage of the poor.the government needs to get rid of the lowlife homeowner associations that bully and take from the less fortunate.evrybody in texas must be rich except me.because,texans keep voting in republicans that keep on draining the life out of the working person and allowing the hoas to bully people.

  • sounds great for the working people,but bad for the banks.

  • In Canada we had the FCAC in place to prevent this from happening. Now the Obama Administration announces the their own version of the FCAC? Surprisingly the Canadian economy is doing way better than the American economy...

    Now it seems to me as if they're trying to patch a hole that's just going to get bigger and bigger.

  • GODS PEOPLE PRAY FOR THE RAPTURE TO COME!!! TO OUR WORLD. LORD JESUS CHRIST WILL SAVE HIS PEOPLE. BRING HIM WHO LOVES THE WORLD INTO YOUR HEART AND RAPTURE TO SAVE OUR WORLD.

  • @bass109 The "rapture" is a crackpot theory hatched in the early 1800's, along with many other crackpot theological hallucinations. Millions of people have died and seen their nations fall, hoping for this delusion that never came. Why do people think that the "rapture" will finally happen when America falls? America has sinned beyond redemption and its hands are soaked in blood.

    Americanized Christians are ruled by superstition instead of hard-headed thinking, as the Founding Fathers did.

  • no blood en  congo

  • Wait a minute, is this Kumar?

  • @Metroid9824 Yes it is. He quit the show "House" to work for the Obama Administration.

  • Who narrated this? Is this Kumar?

  • What about the government forcing the housing market to make risks they would never have taken (such as giving low end no good credit loosers houses they never should have had). When the housing market failed, the rest did too. Now the government is acting like it wasn't their fault and are trying to take complete control over everything. Now tell me this, if the governments meddling in one part of our economy could nearly collapse it, then how much damage could they do with control of all of it

  • KAL PENN!!

  • This is an absolute joke. Mortgages failed because people got over extended on credit and bought homes they couldn't afford. Banks were forced to give loans to people who really couldn't afford them. Who forced them? Congress including a junior senator from Illinois who sued to force banks to loan to a high percentage of high risk borrowers. Now that same junior senator wants to blame Wall Street and the banks. . . oh yea, he's no longer a junior senator, he's the president.

  • @moseshewitt  because people lose their job because of wall street.

  • @ASLforever100

    No becaused of Government Clinton Bush and also Obama.

    Look of Peter Schiff on youtube.. to see that Austrian Economists saw this crisis comming, while obama was asleep

  • Don't you just love how the narrator treats the viewer like they are a 5 year old.

  • I'm not sure if I'm wrong but the voice in this clip sounds familiar and resembles that of actor Kal Penn.

  • Comment removed

  • @daarkmatter LOL it's definitely Kumar.

  • @daarkmatter

    Maybe it is Kal Penn.

    I remember that he had to leave House M.D. to go help the Obama Administration, but i couldn't remember what he was doing. Maybe this is it!

  • Securitization was not the problem. It was the poor quality of loans that were originated. This was facilitated by Fannie and Freddie being willing to buy these loans. For that, thank Barney Frank and Chris Dodd (democrats). "Reform" does nothing to reform Fan and Fred. They can still buy crap. Note - the big banks that were "bailed out," payed back the loans with interest. Don't look for any remuneration to taxpayers from Fan and Fred. Just more smoke and mirros from the White House. r

  • So, this new reform says the SEC is exempt from the freedom of information act?????????? This is the transparency you promised?????  Instead of going on the view, why not go on Glenn Beck and answer some REAL questions!!!!!

  • @daisymom4 Instead of turning to overpaid news media personalities for answers, might I suggest you think for yourself?

  • @generaljdp Instead of trusting a corrupt gov. might I suggest you listen beyond their propaganda ;)

  • Is Kumar narrating this?

  • @njanis88 yes, kal penn is narrating this

  • @njanis88 Yeah he is, this is why Kutner killed himself on House!

  • @njanis88 Yes he is. He worked for the White house office of public engagement for a while. Almost got to meet up with him in D.C. but the white house attorney's canceled on us.

  • What you need to know is this: US companies will BE LESS competative because they are subject to an all new set of regulations, many of which are already ineffect by currect regulatory authorities. it also insures that the Wall Street Oligarchs that have Barry Soetoro in their pocket will NEVER have to worry about failing. Thanks Barry Soetoro! it's ok, you're not fooling anyone.

  • I have a question White house. Since Obama sounds like he only works for the Dem.s among us and I am a Re-pub. will I be able to get another SBA load? He has belittled the other party countless times.

  • I think we would all like to know what this huge bill that no one read allows them to do that they did not show in this Obama regime commercial.

  • 122 thumbs down...what idiots. What part do you not understand about this..or did Fox and Beck tell ya this was a bad evil liberal plot to take over the country.. 122 idiots.

  • @kell4809 Since you are so much more intelligent please give us just one Beck lie.

  • @bnjones28

    Everything Glenn Beck has ever said is technically a lie, Prove me Wrong.

  • @StupidWindmill How can a person respond to a request like this? He has said Washington was a great man and our first president. Ha said there were Negro founding fathers who fought with Washington, I never knew that.

    Have you ever watched a few of his shows? If so are you able to have an open mind while watching?

  • @StupidWindmill Everything obama has ever said is technically a lie, prove me wrong!

  • @StupidWindmill That would require listening to everything Glenn Beck has ever said, which would be kind of like torture. What a cruel, inhumane suggestion.

  • @generaljdp Truth can be painful :)

  • Wow... this is government propaganda at its most blatant and egregious. Total B.S. by its complete lack of details. It’s quite frightening to me that they (correctly) have determined that this type of over-simplistic, slickly-produced messaging can actually sway our citizens. And unfortunately, thanks to our school system, managed by these same shysters, there are a lot of ignorant citizens out there. Is this what our government has become? Do we really have an Information Czar? What's next?

  • @smayster QFT  !

  • @smayster : QFT !

  • Left out is the roll played by government agencies like the Federal Reserve, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the Community Reinvestment Act. The government did everything it could to give Wall Street an incentive to take those risks. A genuine free market would never have let it happen. They're exploiting your fear of powers they themselves put in place to get you to give them more power - don't believe the propaganda.

  • The only people this video appeals to are the ones who know NOTHING and are easily persuaded. Do your homework and actually take responsibility for learning about this sort of issue from all angles and you will realize the truth of what an absolute horrific idea this is.

    More government control only appeals to those who don't want to take responsibility for themselves and want hand-outs and entitlements.

    Left-wing politics are on the way out, count on it.

  • Point blank ... Obama is one and done...nuff said. Guy is a total clown and a complete joke, not only among an increasing number of Americans but all over the world. Increasingly, people are understanding that he's been in WAY over his head from day one. Hell, this joker thinks he has pull trying to get the Olympics to come to Chicago and what happens...his great appearance leads to Ch-town being the first city dumped - that's called foreshadowing kids.

    Good riddance Odumba.

  • Obama is such a fraud. When will America wake the hell up?

  • @AynRandFanJG You are a idiot. 

  • @kell4809 Why exactly am I an idiot, as opposed to someone dumb enough to vote for Obama? Someone who believed his lies about transparency, war, or civil liberties? His lies about fiscal responsibility? His lies about healthcare? His lies about his past? I believe you are the idiot, particularly if you still support Obama despite the fact that he has exposed himself as a fraud. Wake up.

  • Great we have the gooberment watching Wall Street. Now who's going to watch you ?

  • @hobo59 Ya how dare the government govern.

  • @InterntzTrollerinz Is that what you call it ? I call it ruling !

  • I don't know how to respond it looks like a good Idea cuz all I see is the pro side, but what about the con side?

  • Do you guys know how great this editing is?

  • Oh sure typical government blaming everyone else for the problems they created. Freddie, Fannie, FHA, removing risk. Fed Reserve providing everyone with cheap credit. ALL GOVERNMENT caused.

  • @PrismaMD I beg to differ.

    Most of you who are not happy that the Federal Government is stepping in are "butthurt" that these private corporations failed. It's time for the Federal Government to step in and fix this country, and I'm sticking with this statement until I'm 21!

  • 2:5 "the irresponsibility of others"can be prevented by being mainly responsible for ourselves.More government-more taxes. more regulations?Woah nellie!More big business in the government?How will it be any different. I tell you what-here's a new concept: Give us back r power.We"the people"need to live in less expensive homes, stop living off credit, live simply, save our money, get rid of all our excess junk and spend time with your family. What part of "THAT" involves the government?

  • Thank you for this informative video.

  • Fuck you Obama, we know who you work for you fucking puppet!

  • @MainTightSqueeze He works for the aliens they want to eat your brains.

  • I will believe it when I see it.

  • wall street reform sounds like a very smart idea...which is why republicans will scream Obama is a kenyan muslim socialist and it will not be passed.

    I hope it happens though

  • obama's legacy includes being part of a political devaluation of banking standards that made banks loan money to high risk people seeking homes they could NOT afford and driving up home prices since the 90's. Banks survived by developing avenues to alleviate their risks. Dems have destroyed standards that work for their OWN gain...Foolish voters elected this!

  • @ddjs69

    buwahahahaa, so you obviously failed economics class.

    Dont worry, in a couple years when these dems start to patch up our economy you might just thinking differently. 

  • @Arriss3 I didn't fail economics class. I learned in my economics class that when there are 3 workers and 2 jobs 3 workers will have 3 jobs and 4 jobs will be available.

  • This video is a joke.. right? cuz, the new law didn't regulate credit derivatives, nor did it change anything in the lending process. Who ever put this out is trying to deceive the public - Shame on you!!!

  • @cat1012000 This is posted by Whitehouse -) Government !

  • @cat1012000 very smart for the username cat1012000

  • @cat1012000 I laugh at a 12 year old who watched "The Inside Job" and thinks he knows everything.

  • This is dishonest. The government played a huge role in the mortgage market meltdown that went on to rock Wall Street. All that is glossed over in the beginning by Kumar.

  • name one thing the Federal Government can do better then the private sector? name one problem the feds can slove with out making it worst or making more problems? and if the banks messed up?? why are you baiing the out?? and what about people just sigining on the line with out reading the contract???? personal accountability anyone?? oh no thanks i will do what ever i want..other people will clean up my messes... the goverment is a joke and a bad one at that

  • The FED Government created and pushed Freddie and Fannie to lend to inadequate borrowers. Funny how they are not mentioned in the "irresponsibility" or "accountability" section of this vide. 

  • Just remember who fought to rein in the banks, and who fought to prevent them from their predatory ways.

  • I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. - cont'd -

  • cont'd - The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs. - THOMAS JEFFERSON -

  • PROPAGANDA PROPAGANDA PROPAGANDA.

    BULLSHIT BULLSHIT

  • A LITTLE TOO FUCKIN LATE NOW !

  • This is just bullshit govn't propaganda, to grow the size and scope of govn't.

    Fact: The leftist govn't caused this economic crisis with their GSEs, Fannie and Freddie, who bought and securitzed the mortgages so banks can lend more money making everyone a home owner.

    Govn't did not have to bailout wallstreet, but they chose to do so to make the average person poorer and transfer more power and control to the govn't. Think about it.

    During any "crisis" govn't gains more power and control.

  • I have a few questions that I hope someone will answer for me:

    What ridiculous loophole allows banks to 'gamble' with your money? What does that term even mean in this context?

    And does the federal government have the right to restrict the growth of a business?

  • @Lapuchan

    They do now. (have the power to restrict small business growth)

    The misnamed as Reform package the ... ahem... President just signed gives previously unacknowledged powers to the Federal Government to target small businesses that give competition to large business that are, to coin a phrase, too big to fail. Target them with the explicit goal of dismantling them and removing their ability to compete in the markets these companies choose to enter.

  • this video is FAIL. Reform IS NOT the answer. The financial system IS the problem because it operates by the golden rule of finance; "He who has the most gold, makes the rules". No amount of reform will EVER change this because it is built into the system. Unfortunately this video will probably convince the mass of non-critical thinking public since we are conditioned to respond favorable to such keywords as "reform", "regulation", "accountability", ..... I weep at night when i sleep.

  • Cyber police? Say whhaaat?

  • END THE FED!

  • END THE FED

  • Dont believe this shit! The government and the banks are making the economy fail BY DESIGN!!!

  • [Comment edited by Cyber Police]

  • Remember, all those contriburing negative comments will be watched by Obama's new Cyber Police Force.

  • @Writinit You dun goofed and not consequnces will never be the same.

  • Oh boy they made it so clear witht his flashy video I dont even have to question it!

    END THE FEDERAL RESERVE

    If you want to argue against it I suggest you go make a visit to the good Dr. Ron Paul

  • BULL SHIT !!!!!! READ THE BILL !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • We are sick of your Orwellian crap Obama!!!! Financial "reform", like I when I break my toe it is "reformed". WATCH THE OBAMA DECEPTION!!! END THE FED!!!!!!! AUDIT THE FED!!!!!! END THE FED!!!!

  • Oh good ol Joe said it best.

    YOU LIE!

  • @l1nuxun1l

    Thanks for warning me of your "END THE FED" propaganda.

  • @StupidWindmill How's that Kool-Aid taste? Is it Grape or, my favorite, Cherry Surprise?

  • Nice work propagandizing Obama's new economic initiative. Consolidation and centralized control are its rudiments.

  • Kal Penn :D

  • STOP STEALING FROM OUR CHILDREN!

    How much did this video cost them? How much are those propaganda signs for that "stimulous" bill costing them?

    This is the most selfish generation EVER.

  • dea go away............. just felt like saying that

  • The Federal Government isn't as dumb as some might think. They knew about the banks taking unnecessary risks and were fine with it as long as they got their money from the banks. Only when their power is threatened do they do something about it. Do we need more regulation from those that helped create the problem? I think not.

  • @amebs2003

    ...Source?

  • @StupidWindmill WTF, source, Go fuck off ass hole. Source ? Try reading a fucking paper retard !

  • @amebs2003

    "Only when their power is threatened do they do something about it."

    Because of this increasingly apparent thing, I would think people would scratch beyond the surface there not that short sighted, something else is going on here, giving more creedence to the worse case scenario...

  • Getting out the vasoline to get ready for the walstreet reform........That is what it will mean to me......Oh yea, fuck you obama and pelosi......

  • i really dont care anymore...i mean even if The Democrat wins....things stilll are a little "sharp" dont you think...Far as SC these people are having to struggle non stop seriously..."my opinion" sorry...

  • 3 mins and 15 secs of complete BULLSHIT!!! END THE FED!!!

  • what kind of government propoganda is this??

    end the fed. impeach obama.

  • Comment removed

  • Take "The Obama Deception" with a grain of salt and do your own research. I'm not saying the obama deception is completely false. They do make some good points in the film about the federal reserve that I believe deserves some looking into but that doesn't mean their is a gigantic conspiracy behind the government. Watch the film but also do your own research listen to both sides of the story and develop your own conclusion.

  • Rofl, rest a little easier? How about the fact that the NWO now controls more? How about the fact that this is another play by the elitist/illuminati to bring us closer to martial law, and a global government, nice try fags, but I am not fooled.

  • sounds just like kal penn.

  • @slapjack828 It is Kal Penn

  • Doesnt any remember a few years ago, when they had congressional hearings about the freddy mac and fanny mae, and barney frank and chris dodd and the gang claimed their was nothing wrong and the banks should be commended on the good job they did, but yesterday they a had to sign a reform bill in to legislation to prevent any more bail outs and what not. what a bunch of bullshit! the big spending democrats intentionally destroying our country

  • Hi, my name is Remington Draper and I gave my heart to the Lord Jesus Christ in the summer of 2003 because I realized that I had broken God's Commandments and that He was going to judge me by them of judgment day. The same is true for everyone reading this. The good news is God Loves You! and sent Jesus to pay the price for our sins and if your willing to repent (which means to turn away from your sin) and put your trust in the Lord Jesus only to save you, He will and give you eternal life.

  • Is this Kal Penn?

  • @KaiserTota yeah it def sounds like him

  • @KaiserTota Yeah, I thought that is who it sounded like as well. I do remember that when he was written off 'House', it was to work in the White House Office of Public Engagement, but left there in June so this may have been made earlier.

  • Does anyone actually believe that this will put an end to mega banks? NO! Maybe the other things are true, but certainly not that.

  • PROPAGANDA!!

  • this is why I've always have lived in Norway.

  • Thank you Dr. Goebbles.

  • Biggest crime since the new deal. What a bullshit excuse for robbing everyone.

  • This bill is about giving the illuminati federal reserve bank ABSOLUTE POWER by allowing them to gobble up smaller banks in the name of "systemic risk".

  • @ae357em Are u on crack?

  • @shaunsred STFU!!! You have no idea how the world works! You think that the democrats or the republicans give a fuck about you!? They don't. Both parties no work for the seal found on the back of the dollar bill but, of course you have no idea what that seal means. Go back to sleep. EVerything is fine. 2+2=5

  • Josef Gibbles, the propaganda minister of the Obamanazi partei, has approved this message.

  • Thanks Kumar! I'm so stupid I need a retarded animation to convince me I'm "safe" from the banks. No more bailouts, but don't worry you will be paying for those billions paid for many decades!

    The only way to stop this forever is to end fractional reserve banking. Period.

  • @mikez565 Your government doesn't care about you. They don't give a damn. They don't think twice about leaving the bill with the tax payer. The tax payers are the sucker of last resort and can't fight back in time if at all.

  • @mikez565 I wonder how much money was spent on this nonsense.

  • Whatever!

  • There's my tax dollars at work, paying Kumar from White Castle to give me the most simple minded explanation for this recession through a cartoon nonetheless. Unlike the millions of people that voted for Obama, I have had more than a first grade educatrion. You will need more than a silly cartoon to convince me.

  • Pres. Obama I wish you had passed strong regulation and not some watered-down bill made to appease Blue Dogs and Scott Brown.

  • Wonna learn more about trading ? Check out my video's !

  • What this means to me is more small business failures along with Bank failures as well. Thanks To you Progressive DemonCraps !

  • @hobo59 What your comment means to me is that you suffer from mild retardation.
