It is pretty clear there is still a world of anger at big banks, Wall St., and billionaires promoting austerity measures. This was evidenced on Twitter as JP Morgan and "Fix The Debt" took a beating by trolls on Twitter when they attempted Q&A sessions. The following links show what happened:http://www.salon.com/2013/11/14/jpmorgan_humiliates_itself_in_front_of_all_of_twitter/http://storify.com/search?q=%23AskJPMhttp://storify.com/fasteddie9318/fix-the-debt-s-fix-the-debt-q-and-a-needs-to-be-f

Meh, if the government made it clear that, not only would I not be allowed to go under, but if it did make turrible decisions I would actually come out stronger in the end, I can't say that I'd do anything differently as a company.operating free of risk is quite liberating.

^ Unfortunately that is exactly the problem. Fines are just "the cost of doing business" to them. Only prison time would suffice, but that won't happen.

some of these were pretty funnyjust fyi, banking regulators have allegedly come up with a plan to chop up and sell off any banks that are TBTF if when another meltdown occurs. Moody's downgraded some of the big banks this week because of the new plan:http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-11-14/moody-s-cuts-goldman-sachs-morgan-stanley-jpmorgan-bny-mellon.htmlI can't really say how legit the plan is, and its not like Moodys is especially credible, but maybe its a step in the right direction?[Edited on November 15, 2013 at 2:17 PM.
