Eric Holder will be paid big bucks now as a "thank you" for keeping his Wall Street pals out of prison.

Holder will be making at least $2 million per year if not more at his old firm of Covington & Burling.

You want to know why?

Read this:

According to SourceWatch, Covington & Burling’s clients “routinely signed foreclosure related documents outside the presence of a notary public and without knowing whether the facts they contained were correct.” Each practice is illegal. No one connected with the crimes was ever arrested or put in jail as part of the scandal. Holder was Wall Street’s guardian angel.

Go try to do some of those things yourself or, better yet, commit wire and mail fraud, market manipulation, insider trading, tax evasion...actually, why not all of the above, and see where it gets YOU.

The revolving door is working fine.

The president is working assiduously to complete as series of trade deals "to solidify his legacy." Read cash in on leaving office from the transnationals. He has a presidential library to build after all.

Unfortunate our system works this way.

But we (the people) could change it, if we pushed.

Hard to get people to pay attention.

It's the one political thing that's bipartisan.
