Barack Obama kritisiert im aktuellen Rolling Stone Interview die Berichterstattung des Rolling Stone bzgl. einer möglichen Neueinführung des Glass-Steagall-Acts. Matt Taibbi antwortet:
„So the first and most critical goal of any reform-minded administration should have been to alleviate these dangers by making things less concentrated, i.e. by making Too-Big-To-Fail companies small enough to fail. And Obama really didn’t do that, on any front. (…) The sum total of all of this is that Obama didn’t really do anything to alleviate the dangers of Too-Big-To-Fail. If anything, we now live in a world that is more concentrated and dangerous than it was before 2008.“
