On April 22, in a speech at Cooper Union, near Wall Street and with the purpose of convincing the public about his regulatory proposals for the financial system, president Barack Obama attempted to defend himself from the emerging groups on the extreme right who accuse him of being a Marxist, asserted that he still believes in the positive power of the market. Nevertheless, “a free market was never meant to be a free license to take whatever you can get, however you can get it.” Appealing to his populist discourse, according to the followers of Sarah Palin, Obama charged that “some on Wall Street forgot that behind every dollar traded or leveraged there’s a family looking to buy a house, or pay for an education, open a business, save for retirement.”

El 22 de abril, en un discurso en Cooper Union, cerca de Wall Street y con el propósito de convencer al público sobre sus propuestas regulatorias del sistema financiero, el presidente Barack Obama quiso defenderse de los emergentes grupos de la extrema derecha que lo acusan de marxista, asegurando que él todavía cree en el poder positivo del mercado. No obstante, “un mercado libre no significa que cada uno pueda tomar todo lo que quiera de la forma que sea”. Apelando a su discurso populista, según los seguidores de Sara Palin, Obama acusó que “algunos en Wall Street olvidaron que detrás de cada dólar invertido en la bolsa hay una familia que intenta comprar una casa, pagar sus estudios, abrir un comercio o ahorrar para un retiro”.
