1. Why are there no comments on this?
This is the most detailed article I've seen so far today that discusses what's in the actual bill?

This is a big win today. Not quite as big as would have made it fantastic, but there are great items in here.

3. One possible reason for no responses
"Click here for God-knows-what" without explanation doesn't cause busy people to click there, especially when it sounds like it's probably the same thing as a brazilian other posts today.

2. It is one of the few instances where a bill actually did not get watered down to death.
That is actually a surprising thing. There are many good reforms in the bill. They have one final vote on it, right?

4. 'not only remained strong'
is the punch line.

Although I'm pretty sure you didn't get it.

5. I think the banks liked the final product. JPM up 3.71% today.
The Consumer Financial Protection Agency survived, altho weakened. Congress should be ashamed for exempting auto dealers!
