Ask them to Cosponsor the Wall Street Trading and Speculation Tax Act.

Wall Street Gambled recklessly and put the entire economic system at risk forcing all of us to come to their aid and bail them out.
Meanwhile, they continue to sit on Trillions of dollars of this money without investing in creating more American Jobs, the Banks who got our money are not lending it out to worthy small business start ups and entrepreneurs and they continue to pay their CEO’s millions of dollars in bonuses at the same time they fire tens of thousands of Americans!

The Big Banks That Gold Bailed Out Because They
Were Too Big To Fail Are Now BIGGER Than Ever!

They got big Bonuses!
Get made Millions from our Tax Dollars!
Let’s make them Pay Us Back!

Right now Wall Street is using Lobbyists to pass out Millions of dollars (money Wall Street got from our Bailing them out) to OUR Congress people.  They are using OUR Money to lobby OUR Congress to stop any efforts to enforce regulations that would prevent them from crashing the entire economy down on all of our heads all over again!

We can’t continue to go broke trying to become Middle Class while a few greedy individuals and Corporations manipulate our laws and our elected officials to serve their own interests.
Make Wall Street fund their own Speculation Insurance Fund and use the proceeds to pay for any damages future reckless gambling creates in our communities!
