just mentioned the "too big to fail" entities are now 38% bigger than in 2008.

"Flash Boys" illustrates how this system is so rigged and manipulated, billions are being siphoned off to the 'financiers' and the average investor will never have access to that wealth or opportunity.

Regulation is over, the SEC doesn't even understand how this works - until they leave and go to work for them!
