Hillary knew there was trouble but did not have the strength and courage to let the NASDAQ audience know that they had better do something to change their ways or else.

And, of course, the "or else" has still not happened. There has still not really been adequate reform.

There has been some reform legislation, but the banks have not, or at least a number of them have not, taken it seriously. They haven't really complied. They are as arrogant and selfish as ever.
