The general public is not even aware of the lawsuits now. It was just a show back then to appease the public to show that they are really "trying" to punish the TBTF banks. But do you really think they will jeopardize the liquidity of any of those big banks with significant $400B penalty? No, they will probably settle for less than $20B at the end.
Our main pot of gold is in the loan portfolio interests accumulating in remote bk for the last 17 years. Remember, that portfolio generated $9B in annual interest income in 2007. That means there is easily $30B to $87B collected in the last 17 years for us. We need to just get this released. We need the receivership closed down so that there is no excuse for release.
