Should banks pay back the bailout money before they lobby? Vote
Thousands of protesters have gathered outside a banking conference in Chicago today - the final day of a three-day rally for financial reform - to call for an end to lobbying against proposed financial regulation by banks that pocketed taxpayer bailouts last year.
I thought that nearly everyone who could pay the money back has done so. Aren’t there only a few banks left holding TARP funds?
