  • Wall street never was and never will be accountable. Capitalism is a sham!

  • The people are the problem. We vote every day for what companys get to stay and which to go by buying their products. If the government was small as it should be and federal powers reduced to the bare minimum, issues with coprerations would be Local not Global and could be combatted quickly by the consumers and worksers. In a competitive free maket without corperate subsidys and and entitlements true innovation would be the only way for a company to make it to top tear.

  • If you think the people with power are going to allow this - you're crazy. 

  • It would be great if they actually followed through with this threat of action on wall street, all I see is the bankers stuffing their pockets with the money of the poor.

  • NIGGER WILL DO WHAT WE JEWS TELL HIM HAHAHAHA

  • BS it's been one and a half years and nothing much has changed. I feel stupid for voting for you.

  • While the 'man' speaks the sweet words that will keep you calm, reassured and thus good tax payers, the torrent of cash flow going into wall street keeps flowing.

    In this regard, nothing has changed in years. Also, you might want to keep in mind that the United States collective purse was once used to support Saddam during the Iran-Iraq war. Meanwhile you were just paying your taxes...

  • Can't knock Obama for trying to fix the mess that Bush left all you civilians in. The sad thing is noone tried to snipe Bush's ass

  • @imatelly its simple. GO TO COLLEGE! most homeless ppl are lazy

  • @changez07 yeah and i bet your on welfare this would be why you love him so much or your 3 years of unemployment which allows you to be lazy think of only yourself i get it your american,you proud of this, when your usd is not the world currency you will think much much dif and remember when that happens you helped so be happy go use someone elses money for some gmo and liquer
