Forum Post: Wall Street Corrupts Volker Rule!

In what can only be described as spit-in-the-face contempt for Americans, one of the major protections to come out of the banking crises is being dismantled by thug-lobbyist from Wall Street. The 10 page Volker Rule has swelled to nearly 300 pages after the Wall Street wrecking crew "persuaded" our congress to alter it.

Volker says, "I don't like it...I'd love to see a four-page bill that bans proprietary trading and makes the board and chief executive responsible for compliance."

The bill is now shot full of loopholes that render it useless. Wall Street has once again strangled the will of the people to advance it's own agenda of greed, making our own cowardly "representatives" bare us for the rape.

Sick stuff...but that is why OWS is so important.
