The U.S. Justice Department and lack of individual accountability in legal settlements continues in 2015, during the second term of the Obama administration
05/22/2015
A singular feature of the first term of the Obama administration was the lack of individual accountability in legal settlements with financial institutions. During the second term larger settlements were the norm, but the situation as it relates to individual accountabiity remained the same, as pointed out in an editorial in the NYT on May 23, 2015, even when banks pleaded guilty to criminal charges for currency manipulation in 2015. This let banks call the situation "an embarrassment" and moving on, with something morally significant lost in the process not just for the public and country, but the banks themselves as future employees lack clarity of direction.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
