[url=http://postimage.org/]Actually Mary, I find it sad that Sherrod Brown was the sponsor of said legislation, it was already in place.

If Sanders had been serious, he would have simply announced a re-introduction of Senator Sherrod Brown's SAFE Banking Act. That's because Sen. Brown went to the trouble of actually looking into the issue and crafting a solution to a complex problem.

Brown Introduces Bill to End "Too Big to Fail" Policies, Prevent Mega-Banks from Putting our Economy at Risk
Legislation Would Eliminate Government Subsidies Enjoyed By Trillion-Dollar Megabanks, Help Community Banks Compete

WASHINGTON, D.C. – With the nation’s six largest Wall Street banks controlling assets equal to 64 percent of U.S. Gross Domestic Product, U.S. Sen.

The Safe, Accountable, Fair & Efficient (SAFE) Banking Act of 2012, would hold Wall Street accountable, prevent future bailouts, and protect American homes, jobs, pensions, and businesses.

“As our nation’s economy begins to recover, we must ensure that megabanks cannot take the same kind of risks that hurt so many of our nation’s families and small businesses,” Brown said. “That’s why we need to place sensible size limits on our nation’s large financial institutions and ensure that if banks gamble, they have the resources to cover their losses. The SAFE Banking Act would not only prevent bailouts and protect against economic collapse, it will help Main Street community banks compete with Wall Street megabanks. This will enhance lending to small businesses so that our economy can grow and unemployed Americans can find jobs.”

Brown, Chairman of the Senate Banking Subcommittee on Financial Institutions and Consumer Protection, will conduct a hearing today entitled, “Is Simpler Better? Limiting Support for Financial Institutions” to examine our nation’s “Too Big to Fail” policies.

Based on legislation Brown introduced in April 2010 with U.S. Sens. Ted Kaufman (D-DE), Robert P. Casey (D-PA), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), and Tom Harkin (D-IA), today’s bill would ensure that banks have the resources to cover their losses.

Specifically, the SAFE Banking Act of 2012:





Mary, I do not like to fight, however, I will call a wrong when I see it.
