Closing Arguments: Year After Lehman Collapse, Has Anything Changed?
September 15, 2009 11:45 PM
A year ago today, the investment banking giant Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy -- opening the door to a total economic collapse and full-blown recession.
An ABC News poll this week found that 65 percent of Americans have been hurt by the meltdown. A staggering 15 million people are out of work.
And now, you're hearing some of the same headlines that triggered outrage a year ago: more big bonuses and the same risky lending that got us into this mess.
So tonight, we ask you: Has the culture really changed on Wall Street?
Tell us what you think.
