The only way to make sure no bank is too big to fail is to make sure no bank is too big.
From Robert Reich
It is hard to bite the hands that feed you, especially when you are competing for food.
Corporations aren't people. They have no brains, no consciences, no capacity for intent or guilt.
If we want corporations to act differently, we have to force them to do so through laws that are fully enforced and through penalties higher than the economic benefits of thwarting the laws.
On the Republican playing field, Republicans always win.
Not only do unemployment benefits help families who are hurting; they also put money into their pockets that they'll then spend - and their spending will keep other Americans in jobs.
We need a national infrastructure bank to rebuild our crumbling highways and water and sewer systems, thereby putting additional people back to work.
Over the long term, the only way we're going to raise wages, grow the economy, and improve American competitiveness is by investing in our people - especially their educations.
I'm not one of those who thinks the only way to fix what's wrong with American education is to throw more money at it. We also need to do it much better.
Our young people - their capacities to think, understand, investigate, and innovate - are America's future.
