Repeal of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. Prohibit banks, securities, and insurance companies the ability to consolidate.

Created by T.W. on February 20, 2013

The passage of the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (1999), allows commercial banks, investment banks, securities firms, and insurance companies the ability to merge into a single mega-corp, which ultimately led to the economic collapse of 2008.
Repealing this Act would institute fines and potential break-up of the monopoly that is these mega-banks. The GLB Act also allows investment bankers to gamble with your money; putting your savings, checking, and the entire economic well-being of America at risk.
By repealing the GLB Act, we can re-institute the lessons learned during the Great Depression and the passage of the Glass–Steagall Act (1933); prohibiting commercial, investment, securities, and insurance companies the ability to consolidate – bringing an end to gambling with America's savings.
