5. It has been said repeatedly that Banks and Ins own congress so getting regulatory foot in door is gr
eat especially compared to what repubs would do...absolutely nothing. They are already plotting to repeal it. A frustrated Cenk, like the rest of us want what's right and good but look at the deep deep hole the repubs left us all in and the deregulation and complete lack of oversight by people who would like to impeach Obama for even bringing it up and then temper your disappointment accordingly. Of course it's not enough but at least we got a foot in the door just like the ACA will eventually lead to single payer but we are so mad because we could have had it now...it was possible.

Wall Street 'Popping Champagne' Over Watered-Down Financial Reform Bill (VIDEO)

"Maybe this is not going to be so bad." That's the way the New York Times's heralded financial scribe Andrew Ross Sorkin put it when describing the stock market's immediate reaction to the Senate passing a broad financial reform package last week.
