"Why Isn't Wall Street In Jail?" - video on the Matt Taibbi article.

If you can't be bothered to go through the full article here, this talking head clip lays a bunch of it out. Two-tiered justice, government & business corruption and collusion.

"If you sell a dime bag on the street and a cop sees you, there's a very good chance that you will actually go to jail - you will do real jail time. But insider trading, fraud on a massive scale, stealing billions of dollars, putting a million people into foreclosure, defrauding thousands of janitors, cops and firefighters out of their pensions - nobody's going to jail for this stuff."
