$5bn In Political Contributtions Bought Wall Street Freedom From Regulation

Wall Street Watch, March 4, 2009

The financial sector invested more than $5 billion in political influence purchasing in Washington over the past decade, with as many as 3,000 lobbyists winning deregulation and other policy decisions that led directly to the current financial collapse, according to a 231-page report issued today by Essential Information and the Consumer Education Foundation.

The report, "Sold Out: How Wall Street and Washington Betrayed America," shows that, from 1998-2008, Wall Street investment firms, commercial banks, hedge funds, real estate companies and insurance conglomerates made $1.725 billion in political contributions and spent another $3.4 billion on lobbyists, a financial juggernaut aimed at undercutting federal regulation. Nearly 3,000 officially registered federal lobbyists worked for the industry in 2007 alone. The report documents a dozen distinct deregulatory moves that, together, led to the financial meltdown. These include prohibitions on regulating financial derivatives; the repeal of regulatory barriers between commercial banks and investment banks; a voluntary regulation scheme for big investment banks; and federal refusal to act to stop predatory subprime lending.

"The report details, step-by-step, how Washington systematically sold out to Wall Street," says Harvey Rosenfield, president of the Consumer Education Foundation, a California-based non-profit organization. "Depression-era programs that would have prevented the financial meltdown that began last year were dismantled, and the warnings of those who foresaw disaster were drowned in an ocean of political money. Americans were betrayed, and we are paying a high price -- trillions of dollars -- for that betrayal."

"Congress and the Executive Branch," says Robert Weissman of Essential Information and the lead author of the report, "responded to the legal bribes from the financial sector, rolling back common-sense standards, barring honest regulators from issuing rules to address emerging problems and trashing enforcement efforts. The progressive erosion of regulatory restraining walls led to a flood of bad loans, and a tsunami of bad bets based on those bad loans. Now, there is wreckage across the financial landscape."

12 Key Policy Decisions Led to Cataclysm

1. 1. In 1999, Congress repealed the Glass-Steagall Act, which had prohibited the merger of commercial banking and investment banking.
2. Regulatory rules permitted off-balance sheet accounting -- tricks that enabled banks to hide their liabilities.
3. The Clinton administration blocked the Commodity Futures Trading Commission from regulating financial derivatives -- which became the basis for massive speculation.
4. Congress in 2000 prohibited regulation of financial derivatives when it passed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act.
5. The Securities and Exchange Commission in 2004 adopted a voluntary regulation scheme for investment banks that enabled them to incur much higher levels of debt.
6. Rules adopted by global regulators at the behest of the financial industry would enable commercial banks to determine their own capital reserve requirements, based on their internal "risk-assessment models."
7. Federal regulators refused to block widespread predatory lending practices earlier in this decade, failing to either issue appropriate regulations or even enforce existing ones.
8. Federal bank regulators claimed the power to supersede state consumer protection laws that could have diminished predatory lending and other abusive practices.
9. Federal rules prevent victims of abusive loans from suing firms that bought their loans from the banks that issued the original loan.
10. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac expanded beyond their traditional scope of business and entered the subprime market, ultimately costing taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars.
11. The abandonment of antitrust and related regulatory principles enabled the creation of too-big-to-fail megabanks, which engaged in much riskier practices than smaller banks.
12. Beset by conflicts of interest, private credit rating companies incorrectly assessed the quality of mortgage-backed securities; a 2006 law handcuffed the SEC from properly regulating the firms.

Financial Sector Political Money and 3000 Lobbyists Dictated Washington Policy

During the period 1998-2008:

* Commercial banks spent more than $154 million on campaign contributions, while investing $363 million in officially registered lobbying:
* Accounting firms spent $68 million on campaign contributions and $115 million on lobbying;
* Insurance companies donated more than $218 million and spent more than $1.1 billion on lobbying;
* Securities firms invested more than $504 million in campaign contributions, and an additional $576 million in lobbying. Included in this total: private equity firms contributed $56 million to federal candidates and spent $33 million on lobbying; and hedge funds spent $32 million on campaign contributions (about half in the 2008 election cycle).

The betrayal was bipartisan: about 55 percent of the political donations went to Republicans and 45 percent to Democrats, primarily reflecting the balance of power over the decade. Democrats took just more than half of the financial sector's 2008 election cycle contributions.

The financial sector buttressed its political strength by placing Wall Street expatriates in top regulatory positions, including the post of Treasury Secretary held by two former Goldman Sachs chairs, Robert Rubin and Henry Paulson.

Financial firms employed a legion of lobbyists, maintaining nearly 3,000 separate lobbyists in 2007 alone.

These companies drew heavily from government in choosing their lobbyists. Surveying 20 leading financial firms, "Sold Out" finds 142 of the lobbyists they employed from 1998-2008 were previously high-ranking officials or employees in the Executive Branch or Congress.

Economy - Definition Of Crime:

You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.
What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation.

You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

Ekonomija - Definicija Kriminala:

Ne možemo zakonom pretvoriti siromaštvo u slobodu, donošenjem zakona o slobodi iz kojeg je izostavljeno bogatstvo.
Ono što neka osoba prima bez da je radila za to, druga osoba mora za isto raditi, a da ništa ne prima.
Vlada ne može nikome ništa dati, bez da to nije prije od nekog uzela.
Kada polovica ljudi shvati da ne treba raditi zbog toga što će se druga polovica brinuti za njih, i kada ona druga polovica shvati da nije dobro raditi zbog toga što će netko drugi uzeti ono za što rade, to je moj prijatelju kraj svake nacije.

Ne možeš multiplicirati bogatstvo dijeleći ga.

UK's Royal Mint is top prospect for privatization

March 15 2009, Financial Times

The Royal Mint, which manufactures coins for the UK and over 50 other countries, has moved to the top of the government’s privatisation list as it looks for ways to ease the huge pressure on public finances in the wake of the banking crisis.

In November’s pre-Budget report the Mint – a trading fund of the Treasury – was added to a list of eight other government assets to be considered for “alternatives to public ownership”.

However, the Royal Mint is now the main target for a sell-off, according to a person close to the negotiations.

While only one of the three operations – UK, overseas and commemorative coin production – could be targeted for privatisation, it is more likely that the entire Mint will be moved out of the public sector.

An announcement in principle is expected to accompany the Budget next month, although the transition to private ownership will be lengthy because of the necessary changes in legislation, said another person involved in the process.

Since the country’s bank­notes are produced by De La Rue, a FTSE 250 company, all of the UK’s currency production would then be privately controlled.

Further down the list of government-owned assets included in the Budget’s Operational Efficiency Programme are the Met Office, the Ordnance Survey and British Waterways.

The Treasury refused to comment on the Royal Mint pending the outcome of its review of potential privatisation targets. That inquiry is being led by Gerry Grimstone who was in charge of privatisation policy under former prime minister Margaret Thatcher and is now chairman of Standard Life, the insurance group.

However, Gordon Brown indicated there would be another wave of asset sales when he announced proposals on the public sector earlier this month.

The Mint has previously been earmarked for privatisation but the plans were shelved in 1999 because its operational structure was deemed “too archaic”. Ensuing periods of financial loss meant the Mint was an even less attractive investment.

However, under Andrew Stafford, its new chief executive, the Mint has rapidly reversed its fortunes.

“We would welcome any change in our status that would enable us to make the business more successful,” he said. But unions in south Wales – where the Mint is based – oppose the plans.

Strache lashes out at big business Raiffeisen

17. March 2009, Austrian Times

Freedom Party (FPÖ) leader Heinz-Christian Strache has sharply attacked Raiffeisen bank, calling it "a state within the state."

Strache said yesterday (Thurs) the bank had long abandoned its original goal of helping farmers and had become "a powerful colossus." A state within the state, he claimed, and was a threat to democracy.

The FPÖ leader accused the People’s Party (ÖVP) of playing the role of Raiffeisen’s stooge and asserted the bank had more parliamentary deputies than the Green Party.

Strache also accused Raiffeisen of engaging in more and more manipulation of the media, especially state broadcaster ORF. He claimed the selection of editors-in-chief and editors at newspapers and magazines required the bank’s approval.

Banks needed to return to their core business and give up any holdings in the media, Strache said, adding that any banks that accepted government subsidies should limit managers’ compensation and accept close supervision.

In response, a Raiffeisen spokesman said there was a good reason Strache had held his press conference during Carnival.
