    In an excellent article on Huffington Post, Dean Baker writes that a tiny tax on financial transactions would be a good thing for everyone concerned except Wall Street.

    It's doable, according to Baker, if the White House is willing to do a “full Snowden,” and put pressure on potential tax haven countries the way it has put pressure on other countries to prevent Edward Snowden from getting asylum.
