Dodd Frank should be relaxed.

I had no issue with the ACA and do not agree with getting rid of it via stealth defunding without an equivalent replacement. I think that’s a huge blunder, and also inhumane.

The profiteering of the GOP is a rounding error in the bigger picture. Under either party, the money is funneling upwards. If you don’t see that both parties do little to effect real change, and only fiddle around the edges to the extent their corporate owners allow them to, whatever.
