Default Banksters, business as usual

Banksters:

On Wednesday, four large global banks — *Citigroup,* JPMorgan Chase,
Barclays and Royal Bank of Scotland — pleaded guilty to a series of
federal crimes over a scheme to manipulate the value of the world’s
currencies. The Justice Department accused the banks of collusion in one
of the largest and yet least regulated markets, noting that at one bank
one trader remarked “the less competition the better.”

“…a Wall Street culture that enabled many big banks to break the law
even after years of regulatory black marks after the crisis.

“If you aint cheating, you aint trying,” one trader at Barclays wrote in
an online chat room where prosecutors say the price-fixing scheme was
hatched””

$3 billion in fines, nearly, yet not one damned bankster is going to jail.
