That is pretty obvious from the camaraderie that we saw in Congress when Jamie Dimon came to visit the other day. Looks to me like Jamie Dimon and the Republicans are trying to set up another big con in the US.

The banks scream that they are broke. The Fed bails them out. The taxpayers foot the bill and then get blamed for spending too much money. That is what happened in 2008; that is what will happen again. Only this time, Jamie Dimon is coming out and saying that he and his buddies at Morgan, Stanley goofed. Last time they could blame it on homebuyers.

I hope everyone has looked at the list of banks that received Fed funds and Bernie Sanders' comments about that.

Anyway, this is a really great show, and I am bookmarking it to watch it again.
