AngryBooch posted:Sorry that the script of The Big Short doesn't fit on a goddamn bumper sticker or in a stump speech you utter simpleton. Like, welcome to politics. Sorry that you think it was just a matter of "simplification." The banks got big bc we made them get big so that the whole thing didn't go under. Complaining about the size of wall st pre/post crisis (something Sanders did repeatedly) and pushing that as the cause is not only dumb, but creates a bad environment for regulation, because folks don't understand that really truly we just need to say "fraud is bad" and "seriously, gently caress the rating agencies."

I have a plan for the Astrodome. Rent it out and put a big sign out front that says "Wall Street/Political Meet Up BIG MONEY LQQK!!!" and once it fills up lock the doors and until only one survivor remains, then shoot them.

Look CC, I know you're often clueless about what exactly is going on in this great country of ours, but the vast majority of the time, the people charged with regulating and punishing the financial industry are the same people that run the financial industry. It's all a big incestuous mess that needs to be cauterized off the face of the earth.

I'd just kinda like financial reform that did something instead of kvetching about the best solution we could manage (mergers) to fix problems that would have been avoidable years prior. (Through actual enforcement and a more active SEC and DOJ).

Like this might shock you, but maybe Cory Booker, Hillary Clinton, and Bernie Samders are all bad on Wall St stuff and America is so thoroughly hosed that we've pretty much never had a politician speak about the issues in a way that's both for the betterment of a majority of people and also not dumb as hell. It's hosed up and true.
