Actually, Baraka, if you read Matt Taibbi's series of articles about Wall Street post-TARP, you will see that they continue to do exactly what they did before, and plan to continue to do it. They now have DC in their back pocket, with former Wall Street insiders in most major economic positions in Washington. The TARP bailout was a major victory for Wall Street, and they will continue to exploit everyone/everything they can as Congress bends over backwards to make sure that they are never punished and that no regulations are put in place to stop them
