President Obama just announced a fee that would recover every penny loaned to Wall Street.

I don't see how all of the money can be recovered when nobody can say with any certainty where it all went in the first place. Apparently there are many billions of dollars which are simply unaccounted for. This is what he should be concerned about first.
What he says sounds great as always, and very convincing as always. I do admire him. He really is a great actor.
Well, the fact that they required 0 accountability on what the funds were being used for is ludicrous. So, I can't see how they can expect to extrapolate that information from these companies now.
Hey Barry, if the money was so important why did you give it up to begin with? This is just another scam perpetrated by the biggest fraud in U.S. history!

Investment banks leverage up casino-like. When they fail, they put in jeopardy the commercial banks and you, Joe taxpayer, have to come to their rescue. Obama wants to stop that by implementing the Volcker Plan. Some say it doesn't go far enough, but at least it is an attempt to keep insured...
