Guys like this are what Andrew Jackson was talking about:

Gentlemen! I too have been a close observer of the doings of the Bank of the United States. I have had men watching you for a long time, and am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out, and by the Eternal, I will rout you out!

Last month he was denied $41 million in compensation as punishment for the scandal.

This doesn't tell the whole story, but that seems like a solid punishment for a change.

Probably a small fraction of his wealth.

He should be in prison for life.

As an example to the others.

He’s a POS, sure, but people are losing the ability to distinguish between different GRADES of POS’s:

How much MORE a POS is he than, say, Comey...?

How about Eric Holder...?

How about Hillary...?

How about Loretta Lynch..?

This guy is a BOY SCOUT..!

THE ESTABLISHMENT rightly detects there is public outrage. Yes, for THEIR necks.

So they just throw THIS honkey hair-helmet to the baying crowd.

MEH..!

He should be in jail if the charges are true. There is no justification for that kind of Industry Sanctioned Customer Deception.

WFC up 2% AH. Picked up some shares last week when all of the news was wall to wall negative. Nobody died. All customers will get their money back. This is small potatoes in the grand scheme of things, a great chance to pick up a good company at a discount.
