There is not going to be anything done that will hinder wall streets contribution to the undermining of this country's economy, no matter what they call themselves doing. This is for show.

When did GREED infested the corporate culture, the answer is when capitalism was invented.  Without GREED capitalism will not work, problem is GREED is now about to destroy capitalism itself.

It is time to feed those big blood sucker Zionism economist to eat their own food they feed the public and their customers all this years. We all can cook books without doing real works for performance and bet on them good or bad with giant C.D.O. loopholes and black mailing around everywhere on Wall Street for investment deals. Asians are copying these tricks after their cheap labor had been cheated. Can we declare trade wars against our own US brands on religious Wall Street?

Did Wall Street get off easy? Yes. After the financial fiasco of the last couple of years, they got off very easy.

Why would people be cool with tyranny in America? That doesn't sound American. Neither does socialism.

@GQstatus66 "Progressive" is the new "socialist". Marx's definition of socialism was the interim time between "evolving" from capitalism to communism. He would definitely have called it a "progression".
