Trump's "deregulating" everything is tantamount to.......

[bripat9643]

More than the number of examples of the government fucking over the taxpayers.

The government is the tax payers.

It most certainly is not.

Talk about being incredibly naive.

No libertarian would ever make a statist claim like that.

I guess you have never heard the phrase "government of the people, by the people, for the people" before.

Figures, that history would not be a strong suit for you.

Yeah, that was Lincoln's finest piece of propaganda, and it's pure bullshit.

I guess you have never read the Constitution either. Shocking that is not. It starts with "we the people" for a reason.

That's also propaganda, and a lie.

 

[bripat9643]

I guess since it is Friday night it is cool for you to be drunk! Maybe in your drunken stupor please you could highlight the part of that statement that you think is a call for more regulation. It should be good for a laugh

Spare me. You are pretty fucking stupid, but not that stupid.

Wait, let me see if I can squeeze into your pea brained mind and figure out what you are talking about...

You think that because I understand there is a time and a place for regulations that means I want more of them?

So, you really are drunk! sweet. what are you drinking maybe I will join in.

Can you name one regulation that needs to be repealed?

The number one on my list are CAFE standards

There are a great many regulations that ObamaCare added to hospital operations that I would like to get rid of completely. They are driving hospital out of business and wasting valuable resources.

Any federal regulation on marijuana needs to go. If you can post on here drunk there is no reason people should not be legally allowed to so stoned.

I was good with the NN going away, but not happy with its replacement.

Just to name a few.

The number one on my list are CAFE standards

No kidding. That's responsible for the death of thousands of Americans.
And that asshole, Obama, wanted to make them 54 MPG?
Of course he didn't understand math....or physics, fucking jerkoff!

Obama probably thought he could make them 500 MPG and the cars companies could get it done.

Now I know why you are such a fan of Trump. You both hate the constitution.

Not sure there is anything left for us to discuss. I swore an oath to defend the thing you call a lie.
You are no longer worthy of my time

I am enjoying the commie authoritarian meltdown tantrums all this deregulation is causing.

 

[koshergrl]

How anyone can look at what happened in 2008/9 and still push for broad deregulation is a testament to the power of partisan ideology.

Exactly! Like that regulation that forced Fannie and Freddie to make 55% of their mortgage purchases, subprime mortgages. Good stuff!!!

That would be one example. And I could cite several key instances of under-regulation as well.

As much as both ends want to point the finger at the other, this was a group effort.
.

You could...
but you didn't.

It's telling.

And it brings out the true colors of people. Even find out who hates the constitution

ANARCHY......a state of disorder due to absence or nonrecognition of authority..

Somehow, Trump cultist "think" that the removal of any safeguards for consumers and clients from "kind-hearted and altruistic" companies will be better for the common citizen.
After all, companies' main objective is to do what is morally and ethically best for consumers, and NOT to make huge profits with the least amount of expenditure.....CORRECT, right wingers???

Here's an example.......Health care insurers....as most insurers have managed to BRIBE congress to make them EXEMPT from anti-trust regulations, so that they could be free to COLLUDE on price fixing and completely eliminate competition........basically the ANTITHESIS of capitalistic tenets.

Price fixing, a free hand in polluting, the emergence of scams to defraud, rising costs, abolition of competition, etc. ARE ALL "legally" ushered in through deregulation.

"Thank you" fat, stupid and inept orange clown.....

Trump is Regulating Language Over at the Center for Disease Control so don't say he is against Regulations

Words like ‘fetus, transgender, science-based’ and others have been barred from Trump’s Center for Disease Control
Analysts at the Center for Disease Control’s offices in Atlanta were told on Thursday that they are not allowed to use seven words in official documents pertaining to the next year’s budget.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

none of this crap existed until politicians stuck their nose into the private sector.

Ah. Okay, well, show me how. It's my profession, I need to stay on top of this kind of thing.
.

Lenders are not in business to lose money. Before politicians stuck their nose in this business perspective buyers had to meet strict loan requirements. Income, income to debt ratio, employment, down payment, and all this had to be verified they just didn't take your word for it. This was the way it worked for decades.

Then politicians looking to get reelected demolished the lending standards. Pressured Fannie and Freddie into lowering their requirements. Look, lenders no longer hold these loans long term they immediately sell the loans to Fannie and Freddie. But prior to interference from politicians Fannie and Freddie refused to purchase risky loans, hence lenders did not make risky loans because they couldn't sell them on the secondary mortgage market.

Trust me on this, politicians screwed the whole thing up then pretended like it wasn't their fault. I still remember Frank the banking chair in congress insisting there was nothing at all wrong at Fannie and Freddie. Then when the housing bubble blew up in his face he was the first one to blame everyone else but himself.

You're focusing on the Fannie & Freddie aspect of this, and there's simply much more to it that has nothing to do with that crap.

The lenders didn't have to worry about losing money, because they were immediately packaging the dog shit sub-prime mortgages into dog shit CMO's and double dog shit CDO's, getting COMPLETELY FRAUDULENT AAA ratings from the ratings agencies who were making a ton literally selling ratings, and POOF, the dog shit was OFF THE BOOKS, sold to some unsuspecting investors who foolishly thought that AAA ratings actually MEANT something. Ha! Dumb shits! Suckers!

Meanwhile, AIG is making a SHITLOAD selling a few hundred billion dollars of CDS's with ZERO (0) actual "money" to back up those bets, to institutions that thought (suckers!) they were hedging their bets on those CDO's and other shit, only to find out that AIG NEVER HAD THE MONEY TO PAY THEM OFF. THEY NEVER HAD THE FUCKING MONEY, YET THEY TOOK THE FEES. WHAT A DEAL! Holy crap, talk about a boffo business model! But that's okay - they called the gubmit, told them they forgot to keep money in reserve (oops!), and got bailed out! How cool is THAT!

Oh yeah, it gets better -- THEN the banks were creating and selling these horrific dog shit CMO's and CDO's and selling them with their phony dog shit AAA ratings, while AT THE SAME TIME they were BUYING CDS's to fucking SHORT THE VERY SHIT THEY WERE SELLING. Brilliant! Win/Win! My personal FAVE was the Goldman Sachs/John Paulson crime partnership that made Paulson $1 billion, GS even more, and fucked over all KINDS of people with shit CDO's that they had PURPOSELY MADE shit CDO's. Whoopee!

So what does ANY of this have to do with Fannie and Freddie? And by the way....

• Why were the ratings agencies getting away with slapping AAA - TREASURY LEVEL - ratings for SHIT securities?
• Why was AIG able to sell hundreds of billions of dollars in swaps with NO RESERVE REQUIREMENTS?
• Why were the creators of these shit securities able to bring them to market in the FIRST PLACE?
• Why were no limits placed on the amount of CDS's that could be bought to transfer risk?
  
• Why were there ZERO controls on the types of debt that were being shoved into these shit securities?
• Why were banks allowed to be in bed with companies that were selling hyper-toxic "synthetic CDO's" with zero fucking oversight?
  
• Why were the banks getting away with manipulating the value of CDS's, as they were buying them themselves?
  
• Why were the banks getting away with SHORTING the very crap securities they were creating and selling?

Because there was no one saying "stop, we need to look at this". That's what a regulator does. In a normal world.

Are you really going to blame the Democrats ALONE for all that? Holy crap, come on.
.

Why were the banks getting away with SHORTING the very crap securities they were creating and selling?

When a bank creates a synthetic CDO for a client, the bank is on the other side of the trade.
So of course they are short the security.
If you buy a call, are you mad because the market maker who sold it to you is short the call he sold you?

How exactly are they fulfilling their fiduciary obligation to the client by doing that?
.

If I go into the IBM pit on the CBOE and I buy 100 July 175 calls for 1.89
the market maker selling me those calls is now short 100 July 175 calls.
Why can he sell me this crap and go short this crap at the same time?

That's just AWFUL!
What do you suppose the economic impact of those CDC regulations will be?

 

[ScienceRocks]

The goal is to turn America into a third world country.

Yep lets pollute our air, shit in our water, and eat poisonous food. He wants us to be more like India or China! He wants lower quality of life for everyone besides the elite.

conservatives why on earth do you think this kind of shit is good for you??? wtf?

It's the same chit

A flaming river is so wonderful
Food that can kill you is so wonderful
Air that can give you cancer and shorten your life a full decade is so wonderful

Look at India, China or even our history to realize that corporations have NEVER self regulated and don't give a shit about the quality of life of the little guy.

Government has been the only one that has ever gave a shit!

 

[ScienceRocks]

The fact that unregulated corporations trend to eat up all competition in all industry means that the consumer normally ends up not having any options. This is why our government created the sharmen and clayton anti-trust acts to break them up! Sadly, you fuckers wants to completely fuck the workers and consumer over.

And there's a reason why they regulated a lot more after the 1920s, because they learned this was the case and the corporations would destroy themselves.

 

[Carter Malone]

Only got seven more years to deal with it.

America's long nightmare and we're less than a year in.

 

[Carter Malone]

Then you are a fool.

Na, The last thing I would ever do would be to trust the federal government

You trust the Fed Govt everytime you drive your car, eat food you did not grow/kill yourself, fly in an airplane, put money in a bank, pay your taxes...the list is endless. You are just too stupid to know it.

You watch far too many Hollywood movies... lol
The free market is much better than the federal government at all of those things you mentioned

You keep your head up Trump's ass way too much. All of those things are regulated by the Fed Govt so if you use them or do them you are trusting the Fed Govt. it is really that simple.

The "free market" is an illusion, there never has been one in this country and never will be

Of course there’s no real free market in this country, just like there’s no real freedom in this country

Not a good reason to give away more by voting for trump.
