“Has anything changed on Wall Street? (After the 2008 financial system collapse)”

Not a thing, not a thing in the free ride for the 15 trillion government fascist false market. Which is why essentials, fuel-oil, are sky high.

Their selection: The Mandate Man from Massachusetts.

Only the Germans are “callin-em” on it now.

The same people still own wall street and harvest the funds or the retired and other ignorant investors.

Let us not forget Lib darling Jon Corzine, who allegedly stole $1.6B in investor finds and faces zero prosecution from Holder’s gangster DOJ.

So we're all in a twist when JPM loses 2 Billion on one deal but is still plus 4 Billion for the quarter.

But the MSM dare not mention that the Federal gubment is losing

4 Billion A DAY!

The problem with Dodd-Frank is that it didn’t address the core problem of the collapse and the perceived need for federal intervention

Dodd-Frank was never intended to solve a darn thing. It was only there to appear to solve these issues while making it harder for the "little guy" to succeed.

Oxley-Sarbanes and Dodd-Frank did absolutely nothing to prevent this exercise of hugely bad judgment. What they did do, was to address the wrong defects and to apply the wrong remedies.

No matter how “foolproof” any code of laws or regulations may have supposed to be, there is somebody, somewhere who can elude the safeguards and firestops, and bring ruin through the gaps and interstices. The original bills that set up the safeguards and prohibitions ought be re-examined, to determine why that approach did not work, then make the whole aspect of regulatory review open and transparent enough for human agencies to apply it both equitably and with some sense of impartiality.

That may be an impossible task. Common sense is not all that common a commodity.

If you read these articles they never indicate that someone made a profit in the stock market. Just the 2b loss by someone who listen to zero and bet accordingly.

Nah. The sheeple are back to be sheared again and greed and fear are still the motivators. “If G_D did not want them to be sheared he would not had made them to be sheep”—Anonymous.

Sure, on days when pre-Obama the news of the day would have sent the DJIA spiraling and staying way down, it doesn’t.

Why should anything change? They have learned that they will be “bailed out” if they lose too much.
