What policies of hers are you happy about and what has stirred you this person, if I can be so kind....I never thought you were this far left.... Are we talking about the Liz Warren from Mass who said she has Indian blood ?? Elizabeth Warren has sound ideas to reign in the financial industry. This, in my opinion, will prevent future collapses and taxpayer bailouts. This is my chief reason to support Ms. Warren. Frankly, I don't care whether she is part Native American or as Anglo as those that came over on the Mayflower. It is her take on the financial industry and how best to regulate it that holds appeal to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is almost as bad as Sanders....I do believe that certain companies should not be traded, but how do you mean, "reign in" the financial sector ??? Have you heard her exact plans,as she has none... She is NOT part Indian and that was my point,she lies to garner sympathy and support,yet look at her finances... I believe that without sound regulation, capitalism has the tendency to self implode. This is especially true in the financial sector. We have seen example after example of this. After the 1929 collapse, sound regulations were implemented that led to relative calm and transparency in the financial sector. After the latest debacle in 2007/2008 very half hearted measures were implemented which are being rolled back as I type this. Without sound regulation Wall Street will always tend to collapse as greed knows no bounds. Add in too big to fail and the implicit promise of bailouts and a Wall Street banker acting in his own narrow self interest is actually incentivized to blow the system up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly are they as I have NEVER seen them...Show us,please..🤗🤗 Reinstatement of Glass-Steagall or at least a 21st century version of it. The breakup of banks over a certain size to reduce their impact on the financial sector and overall economy. These are not socialist ideas. America functioned quite well with regulations similar to these in place from the late 1930s to the mid 1990s when they were repealed.

As regards this "hiccup" as you call it, we'll see. 6 and 1/2 years is a long time and there's SCOTUS... not unlike a footprint in the sand nowhere near the tide...

Agree, the Supreme Court could be stacked with Antonin Scalia clones; therefore ensuring decades of conservative rulings on all facets of American life. Personally, as a lifetime opened minded liberal, that's what worried me the most about Trump being elected. And his first 16 months in office haven't alleviated those fears. Sadly his daughter, son in law, and other moderates don't have his ear like Rudy, Bannon, Pompeo, and Hannity. "To the victor go the spoils."
