Until those who vote in Frank’s district become aware of what damage he’s caused our nation, all this talk is pointless.

Do the large banks completely control Massachusetts, or do the people there still have a say in who runs for office?

It is the height of arrogance for Frank to coauthor an overly invasive set of laws controlling behavior he instigated and advocated. He was one of the economic illiterate that was pushing Fannie, Freddie, and any bank that would listen to extend unsecured credit to anyone and everyone regardless of if they could pay it back and now he wants to protect us from the behavior he championed?

Meanwhile the “fourth branch of government” plods along mindlessly regurgitating propaganda without any attempt to examine the economics.

Pay no attention to the Senator behind the curtain. Lord knows the news isn’t.

You can be sure it’ll contribute to the left taking over our economy. They’re well on the way already. November can only sloww it down.

The new and perhaps more-vigorously enforced rules only set the stage for a broader, deeper, and more-disastrous crisis in the future, and sooner.

A helpful response would be to eliminate rules. Which rules doesn’t matter very much, but more rules (eliminated) would be better than fewer, and all of them best of all.

But that would take too much power away from Dodd, Frank and their ilk. Count on them to act to garner more power, regardless of how much harm that will bring.

I search for those who tell the truth as they see it. Sadly that does not include the President of the United States of America.

“or the state will destroy itself”

You say that like it’s a bad thing.
