The problem is not Wall St it is the Republican and Democratic Parties. Either Party could end the corruption at any time. The unholy alliance started way before Greenspan praised Keating's business model then got promoted to Fed Chairman by Reagan. The commercial real estate scam was not run by the S&Ls it was run by the Republican and Democratic Parties. Then latest in the long line of housing bubbles was not caused by Wall St it was the Republican and Democratic Parties. Larry Summers, Timothy Gietner, Paul Volker, Alan Greenspan and Ben Bernanke have worked for both Parties.The real problem is that the people ripping off America every year for hundreds of billions of dollars are the Parties leaders and will never be brought to justice. The thought of holding the people in charge responsible is unthinkable to most Americans because it would be putting their Party leaders in prison. How the American voter has come to tolerate the level of in your face rampant lawlessness is a testament to the skill of the media consultants employed by both Parties.If you vote for a third Party your throwing your vote away.If you vote for the same Party your throwing America away.Barry Payne, Titular Despot Emeritus
