Each word of the title has power within its own self. I think you will see that illuminated today during a conversation that Karen Sherman will have with barbara. I am the managing director of the Aspen Institute and it is my pleasure to step in for my boss, and mosley, who is executive director and Vice President at the Aspen Institute. Unfortunately she had a family emergency and is not able to make it but she was heavily involved in the planning. It was her honor to host this booktalk because she has known Karen Sherman as a close friend for many many years. If you know her you know her personal and professional relationships and commitments are important to her. Only an emergency would have kept her from opening this up. Thank you for being here. Im not going to spend a lot of time on introductions because you have the bios in front of you and it is important to get into the conversation. I am honored to be able to introduce her because ive known her work for a number of years. The

Madam chair, as a practitioner, i once represented a recipient of welfare who was charged with a crime because she made more money at a job and received some benefits from the federal government. She had to be prosecuted. A crime was alleged. If this bank, where its mu was smaller, had maybe ten employees, had engaged in this type of activity, opening fraudulent accounts, creating fraudulent credit cards, someone would be prosecuted. A small bank would have had prosecutions take place within the ranks of the person within the bank. Evidence shows that small banks have had persons prosecuted.
