YOU CAN BANK ON IT

by Bill Costley

According to JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon,
the recovery has stalled because of strict banking regulation. --Robert Reich

When bankers wail
workers should wonder
Q: What happens next?

A: When bankers wail
they communicate like
wild animals caught in

regulatory traps, crying:
“Regulate us less!” &.
“Keep the workers out
of our deep pockets!”


Bill Costley has served on the Steering Committee of the San Francisco Bay area chapter of the National Writers Union. He lives in Santa Clara, CA.
