Context is everything. The discussion was solely confined to regulation of the financial services industry.

So you're agreeing that the government should increase its role with regards to the regulation of the financial services industry?

No. livelonger said that Barney's desire for regulation was restricted to the financial services industry. I said for now, meaning that the financial services industry was the starting point for now but could be expanded later which is what government tends to do if it is allowed.

unregulated products and bring about trouble for the financial industry, just like the sub-prime mortgages did.
greedy people will find ways to get away with whatever they can, when no one is looking. Even at the expense of those who don't know any better.- 87

That's a common tactic of the left, change the subject! Those were his words to dissolve companies that don't follow his new rules! He'd have some credibility if it wasn't he that was responsible for the regulations that CAUSED this last crisis!

Our government has been slowly expanding itself for decades - this isn't exactly a surprise

He has no intention of stopping there. That is obvious from what he says every time he speaks.

Rahm Emanuel has said, "never let a good crisis go to waste" The democrats see their time is now, to seize this opportunity to push their agenda, to fundamentally transform America into a socialist state!

communism, socialism, democracy, and every other form of government is always about control.
