9. Because he is "owned" by the banking industry or because he believes we should all be financially
responsible? Voting against protections for people bankrupted by medical bills is harsh in the extreme and the rest should have been tempered with a massive consumer/student education campaign (paid for by lenders) as well as strict advertising limits and rigid new disclosure laws for mortgage and credit card companies.

Sub-prime mortgages should NEVER have been legal and those companies that offered them need to be prosecuted down to the level of the officers who profited personally. It's Ken Lay all over again.
