Which CEOs do you think should have gone to jail because of the GFC?
NY Federal Reserve( Timothy Geithner),Bear Sterns(James Cayne), Lehmann Brothers(Richard Fuld), Goldman Sachs( Lloyd Blankfein) , Morgan Stanley(John Mack), JPMorgan(Jamie Dimon), Bank of America(Ken Lewis), & to keep it diverse - Standard & Poors (Kathleen Corbet).
Along with govt appointed officials tied up with wall street & banking -
Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson -
Quote:During the last year of the Bush administration, Henry "Hank" Paulson had a huge impact on economic policy. He was CEO at Goldman Sachs prior to his stint at the Treasury Department, which started in 2006. One of his famous decisions as secretary was to let Lehman Brothers fail, precipitating a stock market drop of nearly five percent. In his zeal not to repeat that mistake, he helped push the bank bailout through Congress.
Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke - a scumbag who worked for George Bush & was re-appointed by Obama. A major proponent for the deregulation of the banking industry.
