It simply is NOT ENOUGH to fine the Banksters as they will promptly add it to the "Cost of Doing Business" and increase the Usury Banking Fees on the American Consumer as we have seen in the past

Any settlement that does not force the banks into restructuring loans for troubled homeowners is simply UNACCEPTABLE
