Elizabeth Warren vs. Wall St.

[finnbow]

David Ignatius of the WashPost, a savvy writer takes issue with Warren's "war on Wall St."

I was at a holiday party last week and spoke to a friend who retired three years ago as an executive with the Controller of the Currency and is consulting for national banks all over the world from Ireland to Iceland to Bulgaria to Greece to Romania. He's very smart, a dedicated liberal Democrat, but didn't hesitate a minute to offer his view that "that lady is scary," echoing many of the same points made by Ignatius. FWIW, he's a PhD economist who has never worked on Wall St. (and is highly critical of their shenanigans).

I like Ignatius and I've known and have great respect for my CotC friend for nearly twenty years and suspect they may be on to something.
