    When I said "legal" I was referring to the CDO's, credit swaps, etc. I don't believe for a minute that everything the banks did was legal but I'm not qualified to judge. It's such an esoteric world they live in. I think we need to get representatives in place who will conduct an honest and thorough investigation and determine who did break exactly what laws and bring them to justice. 
    The "occupy" movement may not be the prettiest social movement we've seen, but it's a start. Our representatives are not responding to the more refined forms of protest so it looks like we are going to have to get our hands dirty, get out in the streets and make them take notice. We have a lot of power just by virtue of our numbers- let's use it!
