Dallas Fed Admits to Manipulating housing market

[briansd1]

About financial reform, those who oppose it should look at the details and list the items they are so much against.

Sure, it won’t prevent the next financial crisis. The surest way to prevent the next financial crisis is not to have a financial system.

Nothing is 100% safe, so that’s not a good argument in my opinion.

As a small business owner, I’m happy that the financial regulatory bill has gotten closer to becoming law. Sure, it’s not perfect. But I gave up on perfection the minute my company started selling Microsoft (MSFT) products. In the long term, this bill will be a good thing for my company

Actually there were/are many provisions that are already law and have been around well before the reform act that HAD THEY BEEN ENFORCED would have been quite helpful. It is the same thing with the gulf oil spill, regulations were already in place but they were not enforced properly.

If you want to play the cut and paste game I can find plenty of con arguments against it, I prefer not to waste others time.

Assuming you are correct and that the financial reform law restated what was already law; how does that make the law bad in of itself?

Congress legislates. The executive branch enforces the laws; and the financial crisis occurred in 2008. The crisis was due to lack of enforcement from 2000 to 2008.

I believe that the consume protection agency is a big win. Financial reform is a step forward.

If you want to claim that financial reform is a step backwards, then please state your reasons.

[quote=briansd1]I believe it’s time that we recognize that in America, we intervene in the economy just as much as the socialist countries of Europe.

We just don’t call it what it is to obfuscate the issues. We bail out the banks, but our government is too timid to take them over and throw out the executives.

Our brand of socialism is for the very richest. It creates periods of exhuberance in boom and bust cycles. Only the most entrepreneurial and best connected people can take advantage of those cycles.[/quote]

Under a Socialist model the government owns the means of production. When SHTF the people rise up and blame the government…much like what is happening in Europe.

Under a Facist model the means of production remains under private ownership often directed by the government. This is a much more politically viable model. When the economy takes a turn for the worse politicians parade the business owners in front of a congressional hearing condemning them for the economies ails while all along the business owners were simply following the legislation bestowed upon them by the condemning political body.

What type of model seems more indicative in the US right now? Think Dood and Frank.
