Increases the value of automatic annual stress tests to $250 Billion as opposed to $50 billion.

That means of the approximately 50 banks today that are required to go through that annual review - only 12 will be.

The exposure is 38 banks - that will come to us BEGGING for a handout in a few years.

And you know what?

I want them to fail.

I don't care about the impact to the poor, middle class, average Americans, etc. etc.

This was fuckery put in place by Red State Red Voters - and I want them punished.

Seriously.

They hate Obama - they are happy about this (the common every day man Republican) and the ones in places like oh well- square states are already getting there.

Think about what the Republican Party just did to Midwest Farmers and the impact on Trade.

The same Republicans who voted for 'that' - voted for this.


Put my head on a stick and parade it down the streets of France - I don't care what happens to them.
