Papantonio: JPMorgan Fraud Settlement Too Lenient

Last week, JP Morgan reached a settlement deal where they agreed to pay $13 billion dollars for mortgage scams that helped cause the housing market crash of 2008.

Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio explains this with George Zornick from The Nation.

These very banksters have wrecked millions of lives and not one of them has spent a minute behind bars. What's the incentive for current rip off banksters to be honest? And how cynical does this make millions of Americans? How many have stopped hoping for anything better or honest? I firmly believe that this will bite us badly in the ass of democracy, and who cares?
