• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

CFPB gone?

Hope needs to turn into Votes.
The uneducated and elderly are those in greatest need of consumer protection.
There are many unscrupulous businesses who prey on consumers--and one apparently unscrupulous plutocrat who doesn't care.

This will have a negative affect on every voter, but somehow, Trump's supporters will find a way to say it’s brilliant.

Generally, it's actually that they just keep schtum. They can't defend it. They probably don't actually like it but Trump knows best so I'm sure no banks will work very well with no accountability.

Frankly, it seems that sometimes folks are insinuating that they think any large business or person with more than a million in assets should not have any accountability if y'all want America to grow.

By the time you guys get to vote again, there won't be anything left of the USA except the parts Trump wants to remain.

You're about 3 weeks into his presidency. There are 90 weeks remaining until the midterms.

Wanna extrapolate?

Of all the myriad attacks from the right on the federal government, IMO, it's those directed toward the CFPB that show how shallow and vacuous this new right-wing economic populism really is. These folks supposedly hate the big banks and their bailouts and they supposedly hate the "globalists" meeting in Davos, but who do they think the CFPB goes after?

What Trump wants coincides with what his voters want. Which is why they support him and don't object to his decisions.
