It would be more help if you could link me to banks that will go down in the future.

How the hell does CC or I or anyone else knowing the "banks that will go down in the future" have anything to do with how well regulated or not they are? :huh:

It's less the woman issue (I'd place the black issue higher) and rather the more general issue of what they stand for.
Tubman is the positive side of America that they need to push harder to fully embrace. Everyone should be free and equal.
Churchill is the dark side of the UK that we're trying to get away from. Imperialist. Racist. Classist....Not the face 21st century Britain wants at all.

Let's not forget from the list, he was the most agressive and dedicated fighter for the initial welfare reforms around 1909. The friggin' bastard.

Because the under-regulated banks are the ones that go down.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

First, individual banks cannot be under-regulated; banking sectors can be.

Second, under-regulation is not a cause of bank failure, nor is it absolutely necessary for bank failure.  It just makes bank failure much more likely.  If a bank chooses to conduct itself responsibly without a regulator looking over its shoulder it won't fail, at least not for reasons under its control.

Okay, how do we know before hand if the banking sector is under-regulated?  And if possible tell me which banks are currently acting irresponsibly and will soon go down.  That would be big help.

I'm not sure I understand the issue with that statement.

Jackson was a self taught populist frontier lawyer who leveraged military fame into the presidency.  Not a member of any political or economic elite.

But he was a white cis hetero male, so she was essentially correct.  :lol:

Well she didn't say he was one.

I suppose she could have meant Jackson got out of his chair when a member of the elite entered the room.

He was a very rich planter with over a hundred slaves, and Congressmen and a Senator before becoming President.  What else is require to be economic or political elite?

I was unaware he was that wealthy.

He is usually considered one of the richest presidents of the USA.
