michelleprice36 CAMARADA DONALD TRUMP!!!!

michelleprice36 Fines are factored into the cost of doing business for banks, it’s budgeted and modeled out in countless spreadsheets. The percentage ratio on this is less than a drop in the bucket. It’s barely a slap on the wrist.

michelleprice36 Peanuts. Why even bother.

michelleprice36 That's it?

michelleprice36 A very LOW laughable fine.

BBoason $16M for $16B profits? Hmmmm I say 'good business!' Let's do it again! The SEC is a joke. They allowed dryships , a Fraud company from Greek fraudster George economu, to defraud Americans for years, all complaints about dryships was ignorant, I lost everything.

Pocket lint=pfffft

That’s cute

Encore une banque corruption
