Again seems like a reason to protest government. However, the reason they aren't being prosecuted is because there is no proof toward intent. You need to prove proof of intent to fraud, the proesecutors looked over everything and found none. Proescuting the wall street execs at this point would just waste money. Bad judgement isn't by definition fraud. |
So would you rather the laws arrest executives for gross negligence?
As for protesting government, do you want increased regulation of financial markets by government in an attempt to reign in fraud, or more regulation? It sounds like you are arguing this should be done.
Secondarily, if there is a need to generate sufficient popular support to be able to affect change, why would an initial small number of people who are trying to represent the interest of a large majority do as everyone else has done before, and lobby Washington? How is being yet another special interest in a sea of noise going to get politicians to do anything? Do you think if individuals did as you suggested, and lobbied Washington, that you would of even got a piece like 60 Minutes did?
