| 520 | 0 | |a "In It Takes A Pillage, former Wall Street insider turned muckraking journalist, Nomi Prins, explains how we have built a new bubble with bigger banks, more leverage, larger bonuses, rampant speculation and fraud, amid extended unemployment and personal financial decline. The cowering of Washington bureaucrats in the face of the power and influence exerted by the big banks threatens us all. The scariest part is that, for all the trillions that were spent or remain committed through reckless Federal Reserve and Treasury Department policies to the bloated stalwarts of Wall Street, our economic system remains in disarray. Average Americans continue to struggle as banks are once again rolling in outsized profits and obscene bonuses. It Takes A Pillage is packing with the information you need to understand the mechanics and personalities behind the financial crisis, why it is still going on, and what must be done to stop it."--Back cover. | |
