After months of uncertainty about how the U.S. would craft new rules, the agreement offers the clearest picture since the financial crisis of how markets and the government will interact for decades to come. The common thread: large financial companies are facing a tougher leash.
Oh, Duane, come on. How can you know this won’t end well?
Two quotes from Sen. Chris Dodd.
First:
“This is about as important as it gets, because it deals with every single aspect of our lives,” said Sen. Christopher Dodd (D., Conn.), a chief architect of the compromise.
Yeah, Chris Dodd is the “chief architect” of a bill that will “deal with every single aspect of our lives.”
Consider that while reading the second quote from the same guy:
“No one will know until this is actually in place how it works.”
It impacts every single aspect of our lives in ways we don’t even understand.
Thank you, fickle voters, for electing these titans of jackassery.
