1. Yeah she really told them off.

[Bucky]

2. 4:45 - "Now these economic problems are certainly not all Wall Street's fault... not by a long shot"

Stick it to 'em, Hillary! Woo-Hoo!!

[Dustlawyer]

3. Public vs. Private speech, means nothing. Besides, what did she do about it?

I didn't see her do her finger wag at any of them and tell them to " Cut it out!"

[kennetha]

6. She wasn't president

She became Secretary of State with no influence over domestic policy

[DhhD]

8. Hillary supporters say she is qualified, due to her experience, to make presidential decisions.

Here is her policy decision of how financial institutions will effect the domestic lives of her supporters and everybody else.

Her decision is discussed in the second part of the following link:

How is her domestic policy of a $15 minimum wage going, to go with her banking policy? the $15 Plan of Sanders will fit in with his domestic banking policy and Plan to regulate the banking industry.

4. from about 5:00 on, she gets real

It's actually a pretty good speech. But it's an after-the-fact assessment. It came about 6 years too late.

5. Who was prescient enough to see what was coming in 2001?

[DhhD]

9. Clinton's 1998 FAIR, allowing the privatization of everything that government could not stop:

Like the Privatization of Iraqi, through warfare.

Like the - No Bail Out - lessons learned by the first Savings and Loan and Energy Market failures caused by Supply-Side Reconstructionism or Trickle-Up.

10. The parallels to 1929 are pretty shocking

What happened in the financial speculation/derivatives market in 2007 was pretty much exactly what happened in the industrial production sector in 1929. Speculative bubbles, which drew in banks and housing markets that should not have been permitted to participate, led to bank failures and people losing their homes. I can't name you many people who saw it coming, but I'll bet there's a Bernie Sanders speech out there where he warned against some of it.

7. Greedy homeowners to blame, everyone knows that. NOT.
