#286 - American banks: Still too big to fail? - Alexis Goldstein

We meet Alexis Goldstein in Washington, D.C. in front of Congress.
Alexis worked for big banks on Wall Street for many years and
helped get wealthy people even wealthier. Later she quit her job
and became part of the Occupy movement in New York. She now works
for "Americans for Financial Reform", a nonpartisan coalition of
over 200 organizations working for a safe and ethical financial
system. That's what we talk to Alexis about: Are the banks still
too big to fail today? Are the CEOs of those banks too big to jail?
What happened in the last few years regarding financial & Wall
Street regulations? Is the next crash just a matter of time? What
is "Fuck You Money"? What kind of banking regulators does the US
have? Do they do their job? Is cheating still too profitable for
banks? What do the Presidential candidates say about the financial
system? Finally we talk to Alexis about the Occupy movement and
what became of it... Alexis Homepage: http://alexisgo.com/ Twitter:
