You object to banks being in bed with the government, but call for policies that expand that..

Like I said.. stupidity knows no boundaries..
Ahh, a flash of intelligence. I'll take this post seriously.


How exactly am I demanding more government? Are you talking about welfare? That's not the issue. And in fact, YOUR the one advocating more welfare if your proposing no new policies to curb inflation, lower unemployment, or to systematically raise wages.


What government expansions are you talking about?

If your talking about Wall St. then yes it needs more regulation.


Should all health code standards be dropped for food manufactures? How about safety checks for planes?

Damn government

How is it any different? Your saying I'm for "big government" (Conservative talking point) because I support stricter regulations on Wall St. and our banks.

YOU are the one supporting big government, I'm not..

Let me ask you a question.

When government wrote Obamacare, who do you think they got to write the bill? Thats right, the insurance industry, and it was written to limit competition.

The same dam thing happens with every industry. You want more regulations on Wall Street and bankers, then government will get Wall Street and bankers to write legislation, thus limiting competition and putting them more in bed together..

ITS HOW IT WORKS..

Only LESS government allows more competition, and thus reduces the influence industries have on government.
