its time to nationalize the banks, this cuts the powerful off at the knees, this is why they are out attacking CFPB and this is why we have so called staffers in office of Congressional members wring there collective hands on how to screw everyone except themselves.
Call me crazy, but I think we need to think outside the box.
The CFPB is to protect us from how they fine print borrowing to the consumer, they are in essence lending us our own money out of the U.S. Treasury, that they borrow from us to have a business, this is how they get political power off the interests of our money they lend to us.
Why not have language on the contract that all interests and such will not be used to pay for lobbyists and legislation to invalidate the consumer protection clauses from nefarious actions by the firm using our money like ALEC or any other oligarchic special interest.
This agency if I remember correctly has the power to insert language into fees and such without asking Congress, this alone if done correctly would in the long term go after campaign funds from these banks and the Wall Street Ponzi schemes, the FEC and the SEC are doing basically nothing and it will and can attack Citizen United, by using the agency as a end run around the U.S. Supreme Court and the corporate interests of that "corporations are people to my friend" mentality, take the money away from them.
Then these jerks that are on the staff using there ALEC spreadsheets would have no power to further the Congressional corruption, there is a law that a elected official has to wait to become a lobbyist (but that is a joke unto its own self) but not a businessman or woman.
They are always devising schemes to rip us off and get more power why not use what we have the WARREN model of the CPFB to attack them-----or am I just crazy
