if you recall, this stems from the G 20 accord Obama unConstitutionally signed just months after taking office, purportedly letting the World bank regulate OUR financial sector.

I think the banks shouldn't have been bailed out. IF bailed out I think there should have been controls needed in the bailout language. I DO NOT think there should be 'global' banking regulations.

"Those new rules were presented to leaders of the Group of 20 rich and developing countries and then to national governments for ratification. U.S. officials including Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke have issued statements of support for the Basel bank's attempts to reduce the occurrence and severity of future financial crises.Ratification? And here I thought good ole U.S.A. was a sovereign nation. Who would have thought?
