"I want them to understand that we have a real problem in this country in regulatory capture." And we have a real problem with the influence of banks in Washington. "And that we are headed towards an another financial crisis unless we do something to cope", he said.

"Treasury promised if, that Bill was passed, that it's more than just throw fill hundreds of billions of dollars to banks, some holes and the broken status quo maintained wanted to," he said. "It would take the economy to recover." It would restore lending. It was to preserve home ownership. And all these objectives, all these promises were given up by really bad political decisions. "So, in this respect there is an error."
