    Default While you weren't looking...

    Despite all the Republican winge-ing about defunding Obama-care and/or Obama's border policy (both bad policy stances by the GOP, IMHO), they did neither in the CROMNIBUS.

    What they did do was reauthorize banks to trade in derivatives and other speculative deals with FDIC insured money.

    Yep, that's right folks. With us focused on the story about North Korea hacking Sony and other diversionary tales, we the sheeple have again accepted responsibility for Wall Street's crony-capitalism. Supported by both sides of the aisle.

    Just shut up and send your tax dollars in for more bonus payouts you filthy peasants!

    Surprised there isn't a thread about this already (unless I missed it). And no, this isn't a US-centric issue. This time, we very well may bring down the global banking system.
