Reich is a good writer and this is a fairly written story about the white collar crooks on Wall Street. It is really disgusting they want a free ride, while the bosses are walking away with millions in salaries and payoffs. Same old ripoff Republican owned corporations and businesses. They are always screwing up and wasting shareholders money and getting off scot free and now they wants us to bail them out for their crooked acts. Reich doesn't go far enough. The wealthy in this country have to pay for this bailout. They have been making out like bandits since their head crook Bush stole his first election. Now they want taxpayers to pay for their criminal activities. I think anyone making over half a million should have an excise tax to pay and corporations should pay even more to raise money to bail out their own crooks. Remember, the S&L scandal cost an estimated 1.3 trillion dollars before it played out and good old John McCain was in that that up to his ugly eyebrows. He was the one who really set up senators to help that convict Keating.
