“Okay, so you haven’t resigned. You haven’t returned a single nickel of your personal earnings. You haven’t fired a single senior executive. Instead, evidently, your definition of accountable is to push the blame to your low-level employees who don’t have the money for a fancy P.R. firm to defend themselves. It’s gutless leadership.”
– U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) in a banking committee hearing featuring Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf whose bank defrauded millions of its customers through phony accounts and fees.

If Hillary wins, I do so hope Sanders and Warren get cabinet seats.

Okay John, you changed my mind. Hillary will appoint Bernie as Secretary of Defense and Warren as Secretary of the Treasury.

LOL! Now we’re talking 🙂
But seriously, you think it’s out of the question? Too prominant personalities, or do you think Hilary isn’t that progessive?

John, John, John… Hillary is no progressive, she’s a corporatist.

Well, yes, now she is. Once, she wasn’t. I’m hoping that seed is still fertile.

I would like to have seen Warren ask Stumpf what is his job description, what exactly are his duties. For what exactly did he receive that exhorbitant pay. I believe that would have made it more difficult for him to claim that he earned his salary.
