We the People Demand Equal Justice for “Too Big to Fail” Banks
Stop slapping HSBC and other "Too Big to Prosecute or Fail" banks on the wrist with only monetary fines. We the people of the United States are held responsible and will be prosecuted for money laundering and we expect the same from companies that do business in our country. We expect our country to withhold the laws of the land by prosecuting banks who knowingly take money from sanctioned countries like Iran, Cuba, Sudan, Libya, and Burma and who knowingly launder money. HSBC did both. We expect prosecution. If you cannot prosecute this company because it is "Too Big" then divide it. No person or company should be beyond the U.S. capability to prosecute.
Why is this important?
The latest "Too Big to Prosecute" Bank, HSBC (look on the back of your credit cards) has knowingly laundered money from Mexican drug cartels as well as moved funds from sanctioned countries who support terrorists like Iran, Cuba, Sudan and Libya (http://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/2012/December/12-crm-1478.html). The U.S. Department of Justice has found evidence but has deferred prosecution on the company or any person in the company that allowed the illegal activities to transpire. No person or corporation will be prosecuted.
This petition will be sent to the U.S. government to remind them that U.S. citizens are paying attending and want corrupt companies and people in corrupt companies to be accountable, not just with a fine, but with prosecution that any other person would be submitted to in this country. If the company is "Too Big to Fail or Prosecute" then break up the company so that it can be accountable like any other corporation or person in this country.
