How much attention do modern prophets give to financial abuses? Do we consider fraudulent practices sins? Do we believe that God gets particularly upset about financial mistreatment of the poor?
Amos reminds us the the Lord will not forget any of this.

"We" may or may not pay attention to financial abuse. But one thing is for absolute certain. None of the Wall Street gang of bankers have been held accountable for their wanton destruction of home values in this nation. Why? Simple. They own and operate the legislative process at the state and national level. The laws are written according to what they and their lobby stipulate. And, those bought and paid for legislators and politicians don't listen to poor people... or even prophets.
