    A step in the right direction- BUT what about Lehman Bros- their Fraud in cooking the books was well chronicled by 60 Minutes- what tools are needed for that ? If 60 minutes can get the evidence- how come Justice can’t?

      Justices can’t because they don’t know what or how to do it. They’re govt. employees who think they know everything (just ask them for an opinion)but in reality they don’t really hve a clue!
      AND, they just might go after their party’s biggest contributor in the process and that they do know something about.

    Prosecutions will never happen against the bankers. At least not in our lifetime. Who is going to upset their main donor base?

    If we actually had a free market (with no Federal Reserve System) then all this bad behavior and malfeasance would never have taken place.

    Just a little too late to call RICO to the party now, although a noble gesture, I suppose, in the tax payers eyes. Really though, could there ever be another PONZI SCHEME of the size of the Free Money Mortgage Backed Security RUN UP? Even if The “Government”, the Big Banks and Wall Street were ALL IN on THE FIX again, would the TAX PAYERS fall prey again. Are they that naïve or maybe the tax payers would turn a blind eye too, if they were getting theirs. Who doesn’t like a GOOD RUN UP of a market. I’m just waiting for the next “Run Up”… What will it be, USED CARS? Don’t laugh, FREE MONEY to buy used or new cars would be GREAT for the economy, we could also FLIP them for BIG PROFIT it would be just like the housing market was bastardized. How many do you want to buy today, sir? No need for a job or a social security number, here’s your LOAN for that CADILLAC, heck get one for the wife too.

      well Omnisure the next run up will be the “reverse mortgage” scam. They are gov insured so they will trade like wild fire and pressure to put as many on the books as possible. Over appraised properties and cash out the equity……..sound familiar.

        No, the next bubble to burst will be student loans. Look at the rising cost of tuition, room, board nationwide. Thom Hartmann has been saying it for years and that dude is hardly ever wrong. Smart money puts the burst on getting smarts.

    Wonder if Holder would consider prosecuting IRS employees? I guess he would have to actually investigate first.

    Ah, there it is. The comment that really has nothing to do with the article other than the fact that a specific name is used in both. Got to love how everyone on here can take any article and twist it to find a way to bitch about something completly unrelated.

    Points for consistancy, though.

      Nope. He’s currently “recycling” his hard drive and getting out of town before both the Senate and the House are Republican controlled after Nov.

      Hey Trust me, do you think Holder has that pardon in his pocket already for all his high crimes and misdemeanors?
