Q&A: What would be so wrong about holding the banks accountable and creating more consumer protections?

Question by Shuthrower: What would be so wrong about holding the banks accountable and creating more consumer protections?
Last Friday, all 41 Republicans in the Senate announced that they would stand with the big banks to oppose Wall Street reform legislation. To me, that’s a smack in the face of every American who has been affected by all the fraud perpetrated on us. When you stand with special interests and then threaten to filibuster what you can’t defeat with a vote, your just a corporate puppet and you don’t deserve the honor of working in the “peoples house”.

Best answer:

Answer by Capitalist and proud of it
This is typical liberal argument. Why do you assume that because this bill stinks of special interest protections, etc., that we’re against reform? We just want it done right – not like Obamacare.
