And, I think it was a major mistake on all their part to remove the regs.
Now we see the result.


Unfortunately I have not seen the current administration trying to fix
the problems either. Elizabeth Warren was on TV the other day saying
we are not going to see any effective legislation as long as the bank
lobbyists are outnumbering congress about 5 to one and they show up
with buckets of bribe money.


and the far right continues its free market fundamentalism, such as
richard shelby asserting that no regulations are necessary and that we
need to cut taxes on the rich.

neither policy works.
