paul walker is kinda guy who surround the federal reserve and i remember back
[3]
then now that he was considered right way
[6]
uh... he had has held onto the savings acquisitions and is now considered
[12]
who look what happened today they gave up a walker
[15]
now absolutely not
[16]
what change was the political spectrum in washington where a guy who had free
[19]
market principles is not considered way too liberal
[23]
okay any still have those inside free-market principles i don't know why
[26]
consumers have abandoned him
[28]
why do you know why their leadership has
[30]
because they get paid by the banks of paul volcker
[32]
thinks are destroying the free market
[34]
now that might be putting too much was it is not because he never said
[37]
destroying let me tell you exactly what he did sit right he says look
[41]
uh... the vocal that was his idea which is
[44]
you have to separate
[46]
the proprietary trading that the banks do on their own for their own profit
[50]
away from the depositors' money
[52]
because she's in favor of the free market you want to do all the gambling
[55]
that you need to do because you've got enough money to back it up
[58]
they're not using the depositors' money
[60]
on anyone's other side of the bank protected where people putting their
[63]
money and they get it back
[65]
makes perfect sense
[66]
everybody in the country should be in favor of it that's what's called a vocal
[69]
of course the republican leadership
[72]
says oh absolutely not why because the big banks make seventy seven percent of
[77]
their money
[78]
from proprietary trading
[80]
soul remained almost all their money from that gambling may be on the other
[83]
side
[84]
and they want to use your money the deposit or money as collateral
[88]
that's what walker was a prayer prevent he's go terribly wrong money
[92]
so they
[93]
president mama tried to put this in the reform
[95]
they call the boca rolled well of course one of a new they watered it down
[99]
that night as the republicans but also the democrats
[102]
so well what do you mean now paul walker reasons quote
[106]
i don't like it but there it is
[108]
i don't have much simpler god loves us here for page bill that that is
[111]
proprietary trading and makes the board and chief executive responsible for
[115]
compliance and i'm strong regulators
[118]
at the base in comply with the spirit of the bill
[120]
they'd go after them
[121]
that is not what we have well we have is a bill
[124]
but as senator ted kaufman former senator from delaware explains
[128]
is riddled with what they call exemptions and uses exemptions are poor
[132]
pronounced loophole
[134]
so one giant lupo lives
[137]
if you want to do proprietary trading meaning your own trading your own
[140]
gambling
[141]
on car seats
[143]
that is exempt
[145]
but currency derailment is
[147]
are almost the largest market that there is a directs
[150]
scorpions and the largest market what do you have left
[153]
well you have a budget on the loopholes basic if they want to be a money make
[157]
him up market maker i should say
[160]
well look we're just trying to find another side to our clients are class
[164]
wanna make that that and there's nobody on the other side
[166]
so balaji workers or can we do we took the other side
[169]
so if you were just doing this as a as a market baker
[173]
that loophole is so large
[175]
they can do it every single trade
[178]
that they knew today under that exemption
[181]
analyst goes on and on
[183]
so that's why paul volcker says all these exemptions are rediculous and all
[187]
it does is allow them to do the same trading he's absolutely right second of
[191]
all but he says that he would do far more
[193]
capital requirements
[195]
he said give money market funds are gonna continue providing
[198]
funding for regulated banks ok meeting
[201]
banks that are backed up with taxpayer money
[203]
f_d_i_c_ insured he says they should be subject to capital requirements
[206]
deposit insurance protection and stronger oversight of their investments
[211]
unify with the positives money
[212]
well that i need to know that you have enough money i can tell you make a net a
[215]
hundred-dollar bad with a buck in the back
[218]
made ecologically a ten dollar bet with and only a dollar in the bank
[222]
but i saw it on her own bed preg
[224]
my right now the banks say no i don't want any of that regulation
[227]
and they basically don't have that regulation
[230]
because the problem has not been fixed paul volcker the heart of a satellite
[234]
and then finally says uh... yet the strain of the fannie and freddie
[237]
announcers okay
[239]
and began couldn't be more i think a summer school goal of the blame fannie
[243]
and freddie for all the problems
[244]
should totally agree
[245]
but of course they'll legislative leaders the republicans do not agree at
[249]
all because in reality they love
[251]
fannie and freddie they'll over the government guarantees by the scrapping
[255]
origins of the banks of made
[257]
and paul volcker makes the point that ninety-nine point nine percent of
[260]
america should agree with why should american taxpayers back up your mortgage
[265]
so bankamerica as an example makes a mortgage
[268]
and they said we think that this is good enough
[270]
to give this guy money so they can buy this house
[273]
wire they allowed to pass it off the fannie and freddie something goes wrong
[277]
the taxpayers the fact
[278]
and then they make money in the middle
[280]
if they're not even to take the rest of are they making any money
[283]
it doesn't make any sense that's not the free market
[285]
that's buying if politicians so you can make money for something you're not
[289]
actually do it
[290]
and this thing the taxpayers of the bell
[292]
paul volker is just as conservative
[294]
justice for free market is is ever met
[297]
than all liberals conservatives libertarians
[300]
showed anything on the facts probably wanted re with them
[303]
the voters
[304]
but the leadership in both parties
[306]
can stand paul volcker they like high shop shirish
[309]
shirish all-volunteer nominated him as a top adviser and then didn't talk to
[314]
inform
[315]
he almost left
[316]
his roles and budget is not even talking to me and finally they said all right
[320]
fine
[321]
but because i watch you on and we got em
[323]
pretend that we're not with the banks will do the vocal rule and look at what
[326]
they did to the vocal
[328]
they'd be audited
[329]
so special useless
[330]
and as loopholes
[331]
that encompasses
[333]
no doubt one hundred-percent of the cases who the banks want so and then
[339]
or mama and the republics of the banks exactly what they want
[342]
and they don't listen to liberals or conservatives
[345]
that's a stop using taxpayer money basically dekhti bailing out the back
