On today's episode Brian Becker and Prof. Richard  Wolff discuss the report from the Tax Justice Network, a well-known  international organization, finding that the United States is now the  country with the greatest degree of financial secrecy in the entire  world.  Banks and corporations move in the shadows, concealing their operations  and vast wealth.
