The Case for the Corporate Death Penalty: Restoring Law and Order on Wall Street

MAY CONTAIN MARKUP

Mary Kreiner Ramirez and Steven A. Ramirez

FROM THE PREFACE: “In defiance of any notion of the rule of law, our government failed to prosecute any senior bankers or large banks at any ofthe major financial firms at the center ofthe financial crisis of 2007 to 2009. This book demonstrates that the US government failed to pursue criminal misconduct that justified charges against the financiers at the center ofthe subprime crisis, and that justified dismantling Wall Street's most powerful megabanks under current law. At the outset, however, we must highlight that this book ofnecessity must proceed upon an inadequate factual foundation specifically because the government failed to adequately investigate and prosecute the enormous crimes underlying the financial crisis.”
