and good folks like yourself and others posted a lot about it, right here on DU.

Apparently a great number of HRC supporters just don't have a problem with knowing who the architects of the repeal of Glass Steagall, courtesy of President Bill Clinton, or why it was done and how that directly correlates with the ultimate crash in 2007/2008.

Surprise, surprise and golly gee, I didn't hear a word about this mentioned in tonight's PBS News Hour, while reporting on the topic of the Panama Papers.

Should we even wonder why?
