Has Obama Even READ The Financial Reform Bill?
President Obama said today:
The reform that both parties have been working on for a year would prevent a crisis like this from happening again ...
Is that true?
Well, the chief sponsor of the bill Obama supports - Chris Dodd - said:
This legislation will not stop the next crisis from coming.Breaking up the big banks, appointing real regulators, decreasing leverage, separating traditional banking from speculation, and reining in derivatives will stop the next crisis from coming.
The proposed financial reform legislation won't.

ReplyDeleteHe didn't read the Health Bill either. He just goes out and says whatever he wants about a bill, true or false, and no one in the media ever says a thing. As Daffy Duck said, "Despicable".

If there has been no complete audit of the federal reserve then how can it be true that..."Indeed, the IMF has already performed a complete audit of the whole US financial system"? Please explain
