It’s hard to read or watch Bill Black talk about the scope of criminality in our current financial crisis and not get really, really mad.
Black says that Obama should ask for Ben Bernanke to resign from his role as chair of the Federal Reserve. He also says that Obama should fire Tim Geithner and Eric Holder as well, though he says that these men were promoted because of, not in spite of, their work to protect banksters from prosecution. So I don’t think any of us should be optimistic about Obama giving Bernanke, Geithner or Holder the boot.
