We are in the midst of the greatest transfer of wealth to a scarce few individuals and banks, all of it being done within the boundaries of laws that the bankers themselves have either written or paid well to have written.

Glass-Steagall prevented this egregious behavior and must be reinstated.

Nú þegar 90% af fjölmiðluninni er stjórnað af 6 stórfyrirtækjum er líklegt að þau ætli sér að ráða umræðunni. Þá þarf mikla yfirsýn, eða innsæi, til að átta sig á umræðunni.

Wall Street bankers are revolting against Donald Trump

"A hedge fund investor suggested that Trump's pitch to re-instate Glass-Steagall, a set of bank regulations that would potentially crimp business practices on which Wall Street has become dependent, was a curveball to his finance sector supporters. The investor said his pitch Monday to rearrange the corporate tax structure was also a surprise. Although the Republican National Convention is over, Trump continues to provide surprises to Wall Street.

Earlier Tuesday, he called the stock market a "big bubble," reiterating prior comments he has made about U.S. shares."

Reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act immediately.

Ég reyni að feitletra, undirstrika og lita til að ég og aðrir grípi frekar um hvað skrifin fjalla.
