Even though he's not up for re-election, I wanted to help spread Senator Sherrod Brown's (D. OH) petition to pressure congress to end "Too Big To Fail":
If you made a series of bad financial decisions, would you expect the government to come bail you out? Of course not.

But that’s exactly how Wall Street’s biggest banks do business. They know that because they’re so big, their failure would be a huge drag on the American economy. So, they reason, the government would never let that happen -- and they take huge risks thinking that, if they don’t pay off, you and I will pay up.

That’s what “Too Big to Fail” means -- and that’s why we need to put a stop to it. Too big to fail is simply too risky to exist.

It’s Wall Street banks taking these risks, and not Ohio taxpayers. The banks should bear responsibility for cleaning up the mess when their bets don’t pay off. And we just shouldn’t allow a bank to get so big and gamble so much that our economy couldn’t sustain its failure.

Too Big To Fail is too big for our government to manage, too big for regulators to understand, and too big a risk for our taxpayers and our economy. Ending Too Big To Fail means that American taxpayers will no longer have to bailout Wall Street for their recklessness. And we need to take sensible steps, and help prevent future taxpayer bailouts, by ending it.

In this, like all things, I need your support. 40,000 grassroots members against Too Big To Fail. Add your voice today.

It's just common sense. Too Big To Fail is too risky for America.

Thank you for your support in this.

Sherrod
