    They're entities which the government relies on to provide liquidity to consumers, but they're private entities with a profit motive, which incentivizes gambling with other people's money and pocketing the returns. This wasn't a problem when banks that gambled with people's money were explicitly forbidden to also be banks that provided liquidity to consumers, but then banks started breaking the law and HW Bush and then Clinton never called those people out on it. And then Glass-Steagall got repealed and a decade later, kerblooey.

    So because they share stances on free trade they are very similar? Trump is not even pro-worker and more pro corporations than Hillary fucking Clinton. He just courts towards big USA nations that do not want to face competition

    Yeah but that runs on every bank, not only big ones and unless you want to make banking a state property or a public good then it will be like that. You can put regulations that are being considered right now though.

    Trumps views on Medicare on his website is to block grant the medicare money. Can you provide a link here he says he would expand it?

    Both their tax proposals may do as you say but as you note they are very different as to their focus. And I do not see Bernie advocating an isolationist policy. Can you provide some cites for that as well?

    Because as it is now respectively you haven't demonstrated your point.

    Glass seagull has nothing to do with the 08 crisis. Those loans were in banks rights even with glass seagall. Ben Bernanke said that the 08 crisis happened because banks made shitty loans

    Hmmmm, Paul Watford? I instantly dislike him for the sin of being from Southern California, which is basically the most evil place ever conceived.

    I am not hopeful for a moderate to the court, Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar is a better choice, though I can forgive Watford for the vile sin of being from SoCal...... *spit in disgust*

    Sanders said this..
    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/...299eb?section=

    “Our credibility as a movement will be damaged by booing, turning of backs, walking out or other similar displays,” Sanders wrote. “That’s what the corporate media wants. That’s what Donald Trump wants. But that’s not what will expand the progressive movement of this country.”
    Makes me wonder if hes a complete idiot or if he has been paid off.

    Their credibility, the DNC, has been damaged by one irrefutable instance of corruption rolling right into another culminating days before the convention with an email leak that proved the DNC had no give-a-shits about the actual wishes of the people all along.

    Trying to diffuse the blame for that on Trump/media is a double middle-fingered 'fuck you' to every Democrat that is legitimately enraged over the fact that their overlords see them as peasants who need not have any choice.

    And he also sent out a combination of tweets, emails, and txt messages asking people not to protest as a “personal courtesy” to him further illustrating just how these elite see the voters.

    TPP and putting the Banks in their place are my star issues thus making Hillary very unappealing now with Kaine.

    Or, you know, he's completely and totally correct.

    The people screaming over people speaking were totally fucking childish.

    Sounds like a troll regardless. Newly made account, spewing nothing but anti-Hillary and now Sanders nonsense.
