Class Warfare Email Circulated By Wall Street Traders

Ted Kaufman's Mission To Break Up The Mega Banks
Two written interviews with Kaufman from the past 48 hours.
The Goldman Sachs hearings have provided palpable momentum to a charge led by Senators Kaufman and Brown to limit the leverage, size and scope of the too-big-to-fail banks.
