Attorney General Eric Holder vs Economic Meltdown


In the opinion of Mr. Nocera in The Hole in Holders Legacy of the news paper New York Times , I am not understanding Mr. Nocera. Is it that he do not believe that the administration would have suffered had the Attorney General gone after the men in the banks and insurance companies that precipitated the melt down, or is he arguing that he should have done more anyway? I can't tell. Though I myself would have loved to see more prosecutions, I am a realist person. The administration would have been clobbered by everyone

This collapse happened because we are greedy and willing to ignore decency as long as we are making so much money. And I might add, we run the risk of a repeat as this as I see in your newspaper articles indicating that car dealers are now using the same tactics, despite the regulations. Is there no stopping us? I think not. And laying this on Mr. Holder is useless.
read liberals, conservatives, tea party, independent  had they attempted to do more. As such I give them Holder credit for his efforts to prosecute, his success in collecting the fines he did and his effort to ensure the announcement of the reforms that are now in place. There is much on which to build.

Top leader of Sinaloa Cartel busted but...... No harm to the structure

Reading the article in USA today named Drug empire will survive without 'el chapo' gives us an idea that why busting the top leader in the Sinaloa Cartel would not reduce neither the power of the organization and the amount of illegal drugs imported to the United States by the cartel. Dismantling this organization will be more harder than just capturing the leader, it goes way beyond that. Law enforcement of each country (Mexico and US) will need to capture the people working in the government that let this cartel operate with impunity. New leader will rise called Ismael Zamabada and violence will continue. I agree with the article bringing Chapo to justice will bring more violence because members of the cartel are willing to fight each other to gain more pieces of the pie. Government should hit this cartel by  seizure their enterprise and corporations that  launder money, there is where hurts the most and could make more damage to the organization.
