The law that was passed to 'bailout' the banks exempted anyone form being procecuted or held responsible in any way. That is why Goldman got away with a fine and nothing more.

The charges need to be dropped.
The House Ethics Committee (click title to entry - thank you) says that even as the Los Angeles Democrat was warned against interceding on behalf of a bank with ties to her husband, her chief of staff was 'actively involved' in helping OneUnited....
