Fascists and communists always think that freedom is naive...

I've also noticed that on certain issues those that yell "freedom!!!" (braveheart style) the most end up appealing to law and order.

Definitely not a black and white situation.

And a billionaire conman is going to save us all.

Lol...... reads like something out of a bad novel, but true, nonetheless.

We are so #ed.

If anything we should be strengthening the bill and getting rid of the loop holes like the one you just mentioned.

Lets bring back Glass-Steagal, it's a great piece of legislation. It was only two pages long, none of this many thousands of pages BS that Dodd-Frank is. No one had teams of lawyers trying to figure out how to be compliant with it. Anyone could read it and understand it.

I agree. The reason this bill is so stupidly complicated is because of the very same bank lobby that has been trying to dismantle the bill since the day it was passed.

I start with the little things first. I belong to a rescue and foster dog program. Something is wrong in rural America. I have four dogs right now, that people left tethered to lawn mowers and other people's yards. With notes saying, "I can't keep him anymore", and the people have disappeared. This is not usual for this area.
