We should disallow personal relationships between regulated industries and Congressmen.
We should institute risk curbs on publicly advantaged lenders.
We should require bank lenders to institute sound lending practices.
Of course these steps would mean Bawney Fwank can’t bang Fannie Directors, force Fannie & Freddie to take more risk and trash bank lending standards.
Look in the mirror Bawney. You ARE the problem.
This whole thing started with the housing/lending fiasco which was brought to Frank's attention multiple times over the years, and he continued to let it grow and grow with bad loans being bought by Fannie and Freddie while he and his friends pocketed billions.
It's his and the democrat/liberal's fault.
The congress has been democrat for 2 years and that is the period when this snowballed.
The American people are being conned by this guy and the other democrats.
It's a crime having him sitting up on that bench belittling the private sector when these problems brought on during his and the other democrat's watch.
He's been head of the finance committee for years and signed of on all of these financial disasters.
This is what happens when you put homosexuals in charge of something like this.
If they can get away with running a homosexual whore house in their basements, they can get away with anything.
You’ll never see it coming. Bawney is planning to “back door” his solution
Take away from Ameican family and it to the WORLD F--- Y-- Government
They take 40-50% of peoples income and their families have to do without.
Give you an example, when you buy a loaf of bread at the store, its been taxed over 30%,cars,30%,phone bill 30%, cable bill tax 30%,gas and electric.Gas 70C in Md
I could go on and on and on put all of these charges are hidden from the public Now they want to take some of social security away from people. The government already took the cost of food and energy out of the CPI basket so they don't have to give the high cost of living to people to keep up with the cost of inflation. Before they make any changes to social security, they should make changes to the money we give out to the United Nations and all other foreign aide. Then the social security comes out of my check which is 8%. My company pays the other 8%. If the government would have let me kept my money, I could have invested it at 4-5% a year, I would have over a million dollars. What does the government do with all that money that people dont collect? Like my sister, that worked all of her life and never collected one social security check. She died at 55 with no children
2010 - REVENGE !
AIDS has been totally ineffective in Barneys case!
Welcome to depression II, brought to us by the Commies in in our government
lol.

me too.
I wonder how they will try to tax barter?
you mean he is the pwoblum
doesn’t MD forbid gas from being sold at a discount?
That happens when you’ve had too many of the privates of others crammed down your throat.
Technically, I believe his “boytoy” ran the ring. I have no doubt that he knew all about it though.
As a member of the majority in that esteemed body of Congress of which he has been a member much too long, he has lotsa company.
Looks like you’ll be getting your wish. That those evil, greedy banker types will finally be under government control...
with his guarantee of new financial industry regulations “comparable” to FDR’s New Deal.
Seriously, I believe him.
I do not think that we are going to slow down Hussein’s plans or the left wing agenda more than a couple of days.
And we ain’t seen nothing yet.
It is going to pile up so fast that you will need wings to stay above it.
By this time next year, I think that 90 - 100% of everything that the left had hoped for will be done.
Wait until Amnesty passes in this same rush, and with GOP support, as well.
“...People will trade...”
Stock up on toilet paper and razor blades: they make super bartering merchandise.
And don’t expect paper money and non-valuable metal coins (sandwich-quarters) to be accepted as currency at some point (it will have $0 value as the govt. is bankrupt). Small denomination gold coins and Morgan silver dollars will come out into circulation, is my prediction.
