Powerful interests that are not subjected to normal legal proceedings, but instead are allowed to settle out of court and out of criminal charges, and keep their profits. In
rare cases where prosecution and related settlements are even attempted, they seem outrageously
small in relation to huge profits and the blatant disregard for the
law by the perpetrators. Many would be easy to prosecute because the evidence is well documented by a
large paper trail, and has thousands of potential witnesses that support the prosecutors case.
In many cases the "too bigs...." are responsible for massive amounts of damage to the economy and creating devastating
personal losses for hundreds of thousands of people.
The
banks have developed a fail safe way of robbing and defrauding their customers and
tax payers, by pleading they are too big to
fail, and too big to be punished.
