If passed, this will create an uncontrolled leverage risk worse than what we had in 1929 - a key cause of the great depression.Dec 11th, 2014Someone from Eagle River, WI writes:
People in Congress are not stupid! When they vote for measures like this, they're well aware of the consequences. So it's logical to assume that, given the nature of the issue, those who vote for it are either psychopaths or corrupt; take your pick.REPORT COMMENTS

Not only is this the wrong direction, the proponents have placed this odious bit of legislation in a wholly unrelated bill that is widely viewed as must pass. This measure should drafted as a stand-alone bill and be debated on its merits. It is far to momentous an action to be buried in an omnibus spending bill.REPORT COMMENTS

True fiscal conservatives should be in revolt over the Federal government placing itself as a guarantor of free market wagering. This is obscene, and is just further evidence that the party of so-called fiscal conservatives views the true function of the federal government as merely the means through which they can extract as much money from the vast majority of our citizens for the private profit of the well connected and richest. This is anathema to everything our Founders espoused the role of the federal government to be.REPORT COMMENTS

As if the 2008 GFC wasn't enough of a revelation for the need for much tighter regulation of the inveterate gamblers on Wall St and elsewhere throughout the world. The Volcker Rule has already been gutted and/or not implemented (2 year delay on CLOs; the latest sham by the FED deferring regulation). Let's not let the already insufficient Dodd-Frank be sent through the grinder. In fact, instead of taking away from it to help further perpetuate the financial crime machine, let's add a new Glass-Steagall section and title. This industry is parasitic to its host economy, That's now proven if you look at the enormity of the un-prosecuted crimes committed over the last few decades (thanks Obama; thanks Holder). The simple question to ask is: How does the human body deal with parasites - with a dose of strong medicine and a healthy immune system. That's what regulation is (supposed to be). Something to keep the parasites in check, since it will most likely never be rid of them entirely.REPORT COMMENTS
