Re: Opinion Actions speak louder , then words. There was no openness regarding the healthcare bill. Why would this be different ? Plus i dont think this the role the of the president. |

1 edit | Consumer protections? Maybe, it's yet to be seen. Openness? That's laughable. Having a closed door meeting where only Obama, Reid and Pelosi are hammering out the details is in no way "open." And this is just a single example of how he has reneged on this campaign promise... there are plenty others.
EDIT: I should also add that just because Obama's mug is plastered on the evening news every night so they can inform us as to what kind of ice cream his daughters had when he took them out or what vegetables his wife Michelle is growing in the White House garden does not qualify as being "open." |

You're right. Bush redid all the bankruptcy laws to favor corporations and businesses, Obama on the other hand passed a bill that allows renters to stay in their homes for 90 days after being foreclosed on. Actions DO speak louder than words.

| said by DaveDude:Is forcing banks to give bad loans, good policy ? No one is forcing anyone to give fraudulent and deceptive loans to anybody. Look at the current problems and fees now associated with Credit Cards. It isn't fair to financially rape the American consumer. Anyone knows the last administration was anything BUT consumer friendly, and heavily favored big business. Is it fair that these banks scream "we are going under" yet pay out millions to their executives with bonuses while Joe down the street is losing his house, where it will sit for who knows how long, unoccupied, devaluing the houses and the property around it? It's all about the mighty dollar, sadly, and screwing the people.
