Rep. Grayson: How Do We Hold These People Accountable?

[Dadge42]

whys there only like 2 people there

[micmore007a]

The pot calling the kettel black... This monster made his money from the Alliance for Aging Research... Hypocrisy. Stealing 31 million dollars.

[virtual4desires]

I would rather have my tax dollars going to create an agency to watch these guys than have to give them billions of dollars of my great grandchildrens tax dollars.

[virtual4desires]

Ceo's and board members should be forever barred from taking part in running another company should they bring one to it's knee's. Also ceo's always like to run when things start to go sour while under there wings and run off to another company, this should also be prevented from happening. The goverment should have an agency that oversees these ceo's and high profile corperation leaders. If they know theres a watchdog watching there every moves, then maybe this will never happen again.

[mercysnake]

Is anyone realizing from the initial frame that there is only two people, including Rep. Grayson attending this hearing?

[XRRep]

well now they have a huge bank account, and can go and open up any buisness and become the next trillionares. that rule over the masses. if you get my drift. they need to be in prison and our money givin back. they are grossly over paid ....

[NerdtronMan]

Ron Paul. Alan Grayson. Jesse Ventura along with the other bravehearts together they're like one big massive freight train coming THEIR way.

God bless all these brave souls. Keep the fires burning everyone

[drewd1987]

Kucinich too. There are a lot of good men in government.

[italstal07]

My answer would be first to allow the media to fully expose them and continually,,then get a federal investigation team to prosecute and hold them until trial..waterboard them initially to give up their accomplices in high places..

[vipero00]

We could let the free market punish them like it did to Enron and Enron's accounting firm.

[NoseNuggets]

hopefully just without the pat on the back once the curtain closes again.

[sgeo2008]

Join the rest of the states who are declaring "sovereignty" and dissolve this tyrannical govt according to our 10th Amendment. Let those who are responsible for this debt pay the bill. The American people are fed up with it!

[NoseNuggets]

a statute of sovereignty is not legally binding and simply will not be honored. its a fantastic idea in the event the courts where on the side of the people, but thats not the case. SCOTUS is far more worried about previous prescient as apposed to constitutionality.

[panama2468]

State sovereignty is legally and constitutionally binding. The court regardless of precedent has to listen to states when they call on the 9th and 10th amendments. Just bc the scotus only listens to precedent doenst mean its right. If its not honored the states will have t make it be.

[NoseNuggets]

It is, but the argument is that Article 1 Section 8 of the constitution gives congress the ability to 'regulate' all inter-state trade. this has been perverted into the notion that congress governs all aspects of commerce. This is how all these laws are passed in the firs place. Or, can you tell me where in the constitution the Federal Government is given the authority for the NFA?

im not saying scotus referencing precedent is right, im saying its how it is.

[hyylo]

put all these fu*ks in jail.

millions of people have lost their jobs because of the private federal reserve.

end the federal reserve. Ron Paul for president.

[drewd1987]

Ron Paul is my President. His webcast speeches mean more to me than Obama's bs.

Ron Paul president

Peter Schiff economic advisor

kucinich, grayson, ventura, and whoever else I'm forgetting need to be the next presidential administraion.

[okydokey4126]

MARCY KAPTUR from Ohio is great also!

[libertyeconomics]

How to treat failing politically-connected institutions = bailouts.

[Perceiving]

the CEO didn't hand the taxpayer the bill, the government did. The government decided to bail them out against the will of the people.

The CEO would have received thier punishment by losing money and going bankrupt. but hte government pervented that.

[alex26i]

they are getting paid to destroy thier own banks.

[KamikazeKoscki]

Our justice system is the problem, judges side with corporate corruption and lawyers don't have the time and resources to sue these big corporate hitlers {more organizations like ACLU is needed to bring these big corporate hitlers down. Intervention from the gov. is also needed, anytime the American demand it from their representatives.

[KamikazeKoscki]

Heinrich Heine wrote in 1842: 'Money is the God of our times and its Prophet is Rothschild.'

The Rothschilds and the Vatican corrupted humanity and humanity don't even know who the Rothschilds are, leave alone what they have done and where they stand for

[NoseNuggets]

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist."

seems oddly on the mark.

[EndOfTimesProphecy]

obama's the antichrist

[retirewhys]

Now, the FASB wants to bring "special purpose entity" info back onto the corporate books but the Fed is lobbying against it citing that the banks would be insolvent if they were forced to show all of the crap they are still hiding from us offshore. We haven't seen the real market meltdown yet. It is still coming and you know it. Stop the charade and get some transparency in government and business

[retirewhys]

and also. what happened after Enron? Thought that there were new laws against the accounting manipulations. How could CEOs and directors NOT KNOW what their company is doing? These shenanigans should have all ended after Enron. You will never stop it until they take every penny from us workers and enslave us

[retirewhys]

Thanks for trying Rep Grayson but It appears that Obama has lied to us about transparency and everything else. All you politicians will take every penny we have and funnel it to incompetent rich people. I am long past the point of frustration. I have lost faith in the system and will never vote again

[nirbija]

How about a law against rewarding failure?

How about a law demanding that bonuses and other perks CAN ONLY BE PAID, if the company as a whole is prosperous?

And if the SEC can bar incompetents, then CEO's of failed institutions getting taxpayer monies SHOULD BE FIRED and barred!

Then they should be investigated for theft and the like; because a CEO HAS TO KNOW the state of his company at ALL times!

Voters SHOULD NOT re-elect politicians who serve CEO's and companies that destroy US economy!

[sav74sac]

Grayson... you might have had some good questions for the Fed, but you are WRONG to blame the CEO's. It's your buddies in Washington you should blame for bailing out failed companies.

[Bacchusism]

Sound is fucked! Thanks youtube for all your hard work keeping this information from the people.

[scanlonized]

good work

[ItalicBold]

Grayson you have my gratitude for taking the time to do this. THANK YOU.

[neener84]

The bush economic meltdown is the greatest scam in U.S. history. 8 years of no leadership left the American Taxpayer holding the bag.

Shame on bush and dick.

[glassman1313]

Another clueless response from an average American. You guys need to stop with the right vs. left battle that they want us to battle. It is top vs. bottom and the latest clown at the top is your boy Barrack O'Bush. Enjoy.

[LooseLatitude]

That's one R not two, above average American, LOL.

[BlueSkies360]

Bankers did not hand the taxpayers the gazillion dollar bill. And taxpayers DID NOT want to pay. It is YOU, in the government that play GOD and interfere with market forces. If not for the government, these companies would have been rightfuly bancrupt and taxpayers would have been protected by FDIC. If CEO brings company to bancrupcy, no other company hires him. That is his punishment. No need to bar anyone. No need for speeches here for taxpayers money. Stick to free markets. That's the answer

[bigsid920]

repost?  Can't hear anything:(

[Rotohel]

Abolish the Federal Reserve, while we still have a country left. Throw all the corrupt people in Washington in jail. And that may be everyone in Washington.

[skybirdbird]

Get em Al!!!!!!!

[diamonddave514]

start by putting barney frank and chris dodd in jail

[whippoorwillss]

lol

[solojam]

how bout anyone related to the fed reserve too

[MooseOfReason]

We can at least send Chris Dodd home by calling on Peter Schiff to run against him for Senate and supporting his run.
