The thing is, I really think all of this could have been avoided if Obama had prosecuted the fraudulant bankers in the beginning. If the rich are beyond the law as "too big to Jail" then what differentiates us from dictatorships?

In my field fraud is a huge deal. We worry about it all the time and it is little things we worry about. Wall street was involved in monster fraud. Hundreds if not thousands of wall street people should be under investigation for fraud.

Not to mention torture. We put Japanese to death for waterboarding. We cannot have one law for the poor and one law for the rich. Not one person has been prosectued by the Obama administraion.

And Bush and Cheney are so arrogant they dare the U.S. to prosecute them. Cheney still brags about torturing people.
