			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Paul Volcker, in an interview with Charlie Rose, explained what he wanted to do with the banks.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>So does this mean we should restore Glass-Steagall?</strong><br />
No. That&#8217;s a false statement people make about my position. Glass-Steagall basically said banks cannot underwrite corporate securities or deal with corporate securities. But I would let commercial banks do underwriting of corporate customers. So you could argue that what I propose is somewhat in the spirit of Glass-Steagall in making a distinction between capital-market activities and trading activities and banking activities. But it is not specifically going back to Glass-Steagall.</p>
<p><strong>Do you think that Congress will see it your way?</strong><br />
Eventually, yes. They need a little more persuasion.</p>
<p><strong>So why haven&#8217;t your views prevailed with the Administration?</strong><br />
I wasn&#8217;t persuasive enough.</p></blockquote>
<p>Clearly he bacame a little more persuasive.  To read the full article go to <a href="http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/10_02/b4162011026995.htm">http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/10_02/b4162011026995.htm</a></p>
