If you can find anything regarding Mrs. Clinton that looks like those fees influenced her decisions, please let us know.
Do you know that Dodd-Frank removed the firewall between large bank failures and the consumer bank deposits? That's right, consumer deposits bare now on the hook to pay creditors if FDIC is inadequate. It's called "bail-in" and they've done it in Greece.

Pro-consumer? The Establishment? Wolves in sheep clothing, the lot. The Democrats who passed Dodd-Frank simply passed liability to depositors while allowing too big to fail to get bigger and fatter including their own money vaults. Your heros are despicable lowlifes.

Why should they not be anymore for the 'establishment' than any other group if people. Not all African Americans are the same, part of the same group, as well, there are more white people who are anti-establishment than any other definitive group?

The Dodd Frank Wall Street reform and Consumer Protection Act does nothing of the kind.

It calls for far more wall street regulation and progressives were aggressively for it.

Does the Bern want to repeal Dodd Frank? I seriously doubt it.

You are totally, 100% wrong. Sorry to puncture your dream about your heroes.

Dodd-Frank, NAFTA, repeal of Glass-Steagall, Wall Street bailouts, Big Pharma Obamacare, TPP, all the machinations of the Republican and Democratic Establishment to payback the Billionaires for money rendered. Worse than despicable. Now go vote for them so we can have more of the same.

Bernie is my first pick and I just voted for him against Hilary in my state but, if he doesn't make it then it's Trump. They are similar on many things.

I couldn't rep you again, but great posts! Thanks!

We both know that there is nothing disingenuous about Diamond and Silk. Of course the anti-Trumps think that he is paying them but he hasn't given them a cent. After all, in their minds, it's inconceivable that there are actually blacks who don't vote the straight "D" line when they get to the polls.

No, YOU are 100% wrong.

Unlike yourself, I don't hate capitalism. Sorry to burst your bubble. I believe in regulation.

Read the bill. There really isn't any reason to debate this. You are factually wrong and even too lazy to Google it. The Establishment loves uninformed voters such as yourself. Or did you expect them to advertise bail-ins in their campaign commercials?

Regulation is fine, especially of crooked Bankers. The thing is, your heroes, especially the Quisling Clintons, are in overdrive repealing all consumer safeguards that count.

Look. I get that you got your talking points for the day but the bottom line is that Dodd Frank is a regulatory act.

You have nothing to say but personal insults.

What is Bernie's position on Dodd Frank since he is your main candidate?

Oh, that's right. He voted FOR it.

That is the most ideologically illogical and utterly ridiculous illogical that I've heard in my political life.

I won't vote for a "bought" politician but I will vote for the buyer of politicians.
