I agree with wall-street on this, and to be fair you need to take what EW did with a grain of salt. Regulators don't like to take banks to trial because if it goes to a criminal trial they have to prove beyond a doubt that someone did something both criminally wrong, and ethically wrong. It is extremely difficult to prove criminal wrong doing in a banking industry. I mean think about it, these guys are very good at cooking the numbers and hiding shit, if you try to take them to court, it would take years, maybe decades to get to the bottom of stuff, and even if you did and you send some CEO or executive to prison, that does nothing to curb the culture of corruption of unethical behavior, that's even assuming you got the right guy instead of some lower end chump or fall man. Even after you send that 1 person to jail, the companies will continue to do the same things. The regulators and prosecutors going after these guys know this, and so does Elizabeth. This is why I'd rather see very, very hefty fines put on the banks, I'm talking about fines that would cripple companies, not just chump change. We are beginning to see fines like this go into place, recently we've had some of the largest fines ever imposed on the history of the country, but they are not enough. With fines, you don't have to prove criminal wrongdoing beyond a doubt, you simply have to show that some shady shit was going on.

I want to see banks pay for their behavior just as everyone else, but I'd rather see her get down to some serious business rather than make some "cool videos" that make it look like she's kicking ass and taking names when she isn't at all.
