STFU U HYPOCRITE. Republicans put in place LAWS to PROTECT the BANK CRIMINAL family DURING 8 YEARS of POS Bush. Obama could do NOTHING with those laws in place. Just like NOW POS tRUMP has repealed ALL regulation that Obama put in place to PROTECT us from these MEGA CORPORATE SWAMP CRIMINALS of BANK and BIG OIL. And Now the biggest sticking point on STIMULUS is that republicans want to NOT hold accountable corporations if employees get covid-19 in the office. So you are a LYING HYPOCRITE.

My personal opinion is bankers should have gone to jail because they lied to investors but when I listen to CEOs now they all say the same thing - their numbers may not be correct and the things they say may not be correct. In other words, they can't be sued for lying anymore (so why not lie?). Let's assume other laws were broken and the Federal government didn't prosecute. State AGs could have sued and they too decided there was no case against the bankers. So we have the feds, blue and red state AGs who didn't prosecute (I think one was found guilty). Better laws were/are clearly needed. Not sure of the status on getting banks back to where they should be considering we're in another collapse now.
