[quote=briansd1]As a society, we greatly benefited from Wall Street. Without Wall Street and the lending they created, our economy would have been a fraction of what it is now.
Without credit cards, retailers would suffer, restaurants would close and the economy wouldn’t be as vibrant.
Without Wall Street, America would not be the capitalist society it is today.

This last bubble/bust and the transfer of taxdollars to bail them out is the biggest fraud perpetrated on our country.
brian, you are buying the TBTF BS. Right now banks are not really lending. The government via FHA is lending. Few banks are lending. As for credit cards, they are not doing anyone a favor by charging 29% or whatever ridiculous rate they use.
