Stephen Smith said: "It is outrageous to learn that Southern Company was conspiring to secure below-market rate loan guarantees, which would have put billions of dollars of taxpayer money at risk, for a controversial nuclear plant in Georgia ,"

Stephen Smith said: "My organization urges that the loan guarantee for Plant Vogtle be terminated," "Despite this newly revealed information, and perhaps because of the ongoing controversies resulting from the nuclear accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi complex in Japan , the terms of the updated loan guarantee deal are still being held in secret. We call for an investigation into this sweetheart deal and for all records of the negotiations and political influence to be made public. We believe this is a high-risk project, far from completion, that puts both taxpayers and ratepayers at risk. We believe there are safer, cleaner, more-cost effective alternatives to generating electricity"

Sherrod Brown said: “Effective capital markets require transparency and accountability, not one set of rules for insiders and another for the rest of us," said Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), chairman of the Senate Banking subcommittee on financial institutions and consumer protection. Brown said the Securities and Exchange Commission "must fully investigate and take appropriate action if it discovers any violations". SEC Chairwoman Mary Schapiro said Tuesday that there were issues related to the Facebook IPO that the agency needed to look in to. Her comments came amid reports that Morgan Stanley & Co., the lead underwriter of one of the most eagerly anticipated IPOs ever, had informed some favored clients before Friday's offering that the bank was cutting its revenue estimates for Facebook. The Senate Banking Committee wants to learn more about issues raised in news reports about Facebook's IPO and staff are receiving briefings from Facebook, regulators and other stakeholders, said a committee aide, who was not authorized to speak publicly. Staff at the House Financial Services Committee also are gathering information about Facebook’s IPO, said Marisol Garibay, the committee's communications director. "While no hearings specifically focused on this IPO are planned at this time, the committee will have hearings over the coming weeks where this topic is likely to be raised," she said. Brown said the problems in Facebook's IPO highlighted his concerns about the recently enacted Jump-Start Our Business Start-Ups Act, known as the JOBS Act. The legislation, which had strong bipartisan support and was signed by President Obama in April, was designed to make it easier for small businesses to get access to investment capital. But opponents warned that the bill of stock offerings. would weaken regulatory oversight "The conduct in this highly publicized IPO only reinforces that the Senate was mistaken in voting to remove oversight from approximately 98% of all IPOs for companies making less than $1 billion per year,”

WASHINGTON -- Two congressional committees are looking into the troubled initial public offering of Facebook Inc., aides said Wednesday....

Godfrey Bloom antwortete: "Nein, das Problem, das wir haben, ist das Teil-Reservebankensystem, dadurch können Banken Geld verleihen, das sie gar nicht haben, Zentralbanken und Politiker können einfach Geld drucken. Das ist das Problem. Es ist nicht die Besteuerung, es ist auch nicht die Regulierung. Das Problem besteht wegen des kriminellen Verhaltens der Zentralbanken. Solange das System bestehen bleibt, wird sich nichts ändern. Es wird in Zukunft noch viele geben, glauben Sie mir"

Im europäischen Parlament am 23. Mai in Strassburg sagte Godfrey Bloom, Abgeordneter der UK Independence Party: „Eine Finanztransaktionssteuer klingt nach einer wirklich guten Idee, nicht wahr, politisch klingt sie gut.
