Post# of 63703
A new poll of likely 2014 voters conducted for the fourth anniversary of Dodd-Frank by Democratic firm Greenberg, Quinlan, Rosner shows Americans think the stock market is rigged and little has been done to reform Wall Street. Per a release out later this morning from financial reform group Better Markets, which commissioned the poll: “American voters still distrust Wall Street and big banks and strongly support tough financial regulation … [M]ajorities of Democrats and Independents and a plurality of Republicans still consider Wall Street and the big banks ‘bad actors’ that don’t care about the interests of American families.
“Sixty four percent of all voters and 62 percent of voters that own stock believe ‘the stock market is rigged for insiders and people who know how to manipulate the system.’ …
A 55 percent majority believes ‘Wall Street and big banks hurt everyday Americans’ …
The poll found that nearly 90 percent of voters are dissatisfied with the federal government’s actions regulating Wall Street so far …
“Stricter regulation of Wall Street and the big banks find large and wide bipartisan support, including 74 percent of Democrats, 56 percent of Independents and a comfortable plurality of Republicans at 46 percent.”
