Wouldn\u2019t you think that after the \u201cValentine day massacre\u201d at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, government officials would be chomping at the bit to discuss gun control? This would be true if we were talking about Australia, England, Germany or any other civilized country, and not the United States. Here, the Republican Party is being held hostage by the NRA and other lobbying groups.<\/p>\n

As reported by CNN, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell announced Thursday that the Senate will turn to a banking bill next week, dashing the hopes of many Senators in both parties that the Senate would be able to pass gun legislation quickly in the wake of the mass shooting. Asked if there will be a way forward on guns next week, McConnell replied, \u201cNo, we\u2019re going to the Crapo bill next week.\u201d He was referring to the proposal inked by the Idaho Senator Mike Crapo which would repeal the Dodd-Frank Act implemented by President Obama<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Dodd-Frank Act is the federal law that places regulations on the financial industry in the hands of the government. This process would limit risk by enforcing transparency and accountability. This would decrease the risk of another recession like we experienced during the Bush presidency. Republican critics say the 2010 Dodd-Frank law went too far and curbs banks\u2019 ability to lend, while many Democrats say it provides critical protections for consumers and taxpayers. Crapo\u2019s bill would ease restrictions on small banks and credit unions, but also includes a number of provisions beneficial to all but the largest U.S. banks… [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dodd Frank makes sure Banksters carry enough reserves.  It outlaws Bankster Gambling by banning speculation with our money for their own profit. It empowers the SEC to regulate risky derivatives.  It requires Hedge funds to reveal all trades to the SEC.  It oversees credit rating agencies.  It regulates credit cards, loans, and mortgages.  It increases supervision of insurance companies.  And it reforms the Federal Reserve.<\/font><\/p>\n

In other words, Dodd-Frank addresses the abuses by corporate criminals that caused the Republican Collapse and Recession of 2008.  Allowed to resume those abuses, Banksters could steal more profit, but the end result would probably be another economic collapse and recession.<\/font><\/p>\n

Allowing Banksters and other corporate criminals to do this is the pile of Crapo that Republicans consider so necessary that they are willing to pay for it with the blood of more murdered students.<\/font><\/p>\n
