The Ultimate Winner
So, it's the Republicans fault for not prosecuting and letting illegal activity go and to reward the Chase CEO, however it is prudent for the Democrats and the DOJ not to do anything.Maybe you ought to put TARP into perspective:
Troubled Asset Relief Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Consider, Obama had been President for 60 days and the worlds economy was in crisis, a crisis only second to the Great Depression. And consider, there was no play book, no roadmap and TARP was signed into law by G. W. Bush.
When the vote was taken Obama had been in office for two years, and the R's had won a big victory in Nov 2010. By then they had spent two years rewriting history and blaming Obama for everything but the attack on Pearl Harbor. Hence, they didn't want the economy to recover, not until they returned to power and that was their entire focus and has been since they got badly beaten in the 2008 election.
Maybe you can tell us why the DOJ isn't prosecuting anyone in the banking scandals.
The short story?
Those guys made the mess and knew how to clean it up.
Putting them in the klink would have been satisfying, but it would have closed down the Financial Sector.
So blame Republicans, give pass to the Democrats.
