The Bank Doctorine policy allows banks and financial institutions to rob individual citizens and the government to pay for excessive excutive bonuses and golden parachutes, at minimal cost.
Under the Bank Doctorine politically connected financial institutions are too big to fail, and too big to be punished. This is especially true during election years when politicians need to attract large donors with reliable sources of income.
It is facilitated in part by financial interests that rotate in and out of regulatory and governing bodies.

The Bank Doctorine makes it possible to avoid capitalism, market corrections, and criminal procecution. This way the banks have an incentive to give the public the worst deal possible.

Get the Bank Doctorinemug. When you illegally exclude people from consideration because of their personal political and spiritual and economic beliefs.
Monica could you please explain your employment practices.
Yes, we have affirmative reaction. We exclude everyone who will not agree with us on every decision. We want some one who will not question bad judgement and illegal activities. This is a very open policy, many of these people are highly unqualified, and who would not normally be hired.

Get the Affirmative Reactionmug. A legal defense by rich kids and or adults who are guilty of a crime for which they committed and freely admit. The defence is that the offspring of wealthy, privileged parents who never set limits on their childrens behavior, are exempt from regular laws because natural law allows for special privilege and greater understanding for the rich and powerful in general. This argument comes from a branch of philosophy called circular logic. If the defense works it also means that instead of applying legal limits on rich people's behavior it legally exempts them and only them. This strengthens the defense in further legal problems should they occur again.
The affluenza defense works a lot better than a similar defense works for the offspring or poor, impoverished and suppressed parents, who don't have the resources to feed, cloth or house their kids properly, and because of time and resource constraints are unable keep tract or to set limits on their childrens behavior.

Get the affluenzamug. It is the negative response to journalism and related stories on a controversial topic. Flak can include boycotts, bombing, threats, censorship, destruction of a career and all sorts of negative reactions. The media sometimes filters out articles to prevent flak
The reporter was not afraid of getting Flak for her article called Rape Woman Matter. It was originally written for mass media but ended up being dictated on a youtube.com video because it would not be printed or aired in the mass media because it was too controversial and would trigger a lot of negative responses by people in the rape culture.
