“Now, the House of Representatives is about to show us the worst of government for the rich and powerful,” she continued. “The House is about to vote on a budget deal, a deal negotiated behind closed doors that slips in a provision that would let derivatives traders on Wall Street gamble with taxpayer money and get bailed out by the government when their risky bets threaten to blow up our financial system.”She acknowledged that bipartisan House and Senate negotiators have worked “long and hard” on the spending bill, and that Senate leadership “deserve great credit for preventing the House from carrying out some of their more aggressive … fantasies about dismantling even more pieces of financial reform.”
Someone had a suggestion last week, that maybe politicians should have to ware body cameras,wall street, in backroom negotiations, tells our lawmakers to again allow the taxpayers to underwrite the gamble with derivatives
a resumption of privatizing the potentially massive profits and socializing the massive potential losses
this illustrates why Elizabeth Warren (and Bernie Sanders) should be the on democratic ticket in 2016
otherwise we will continue to have the best government money can buy

If it is good for the cops, why not the politicians?
Well, I liked the suggestion! Good idea!That was me.
Why should I believe what Warren says? Half truths and lies are common.
She's a native American...lolSuch as?

Such as?
"I'm an indian", "The subprime morthages targetted black folks". There's two.
Such as?
No, that's one, because the "Indian" idiocy is just conservative whackadoodle hackery, right up there with screaming "Benghazi!" or "You didn't build that!" with zero understanding of what the discussion is about, so the "Indian thing" is dismissed. It's a particularly low hanging fruit for partisan right wing retards.
As for the subprime mortage targeting minorities, how was that a lie?

Are you serious? How do you expect to be taken seriously? :lamo
if dems kill the bill more so in the senate then the government shuts down.
they can't blame republicans.
I am eh on the sections in question.
dodd/frank has not done what it was suppose to do and has probably created more issues than what it solved.
that is what happens when you issue 400 new regulations.
I honestly think banking / investment banking should be kept separated.
neither the twain should met and taxpayers shouldn't be on the hook for bad businesses investments.
also the bill isn't getting rid of all regulations on default swaps but expanding the ones that can be used.
a large part of the lack of recovery was that lending and business investment was stifled under this administration.
without the outflow of capital companies had a hard time expanding and generating revenue.
What’s in the spending bill? We skim it so you don’t have to - The Washington Post
here is a list of all the things in the budget.
I really like the one that puts a clamp on the EPA clean water act over-reach.
I haven't seen any proof the bill says all that yet.
Uh huh. You don't know what's in the bill yet so she's lying.
Right.
I said half truths and lies are common. I assume you read the bill and can quote it.
No, it is just Politicians, I think need to be held to a higher standard.why not all citizens, if you suspect someone of a crime you can just check their body cam to see if they did it
Which is why I wanted examples, because if you're going to assume lies and half truths were said then I want a history of her behavior that would suggest she's not to be trusted.
