I started this thread to point out how people skew words to their own agenda i.e. The majority of Americans voted for Hillary. Not true - the majority of people who cast a ballot voted for Hillary. So to say she was the will of the people could or could not be true. Also I am not a liberal probably much more conservative than you. Totally believe in supply and demand but also know that won't work with any interference like regulations because then it is no longer supply and demand. And finally I'll bet you I can color between the lines far better than you. Wanna try?

In California Hillary won enough votes...supposedly...to "beat" Trump in the overall election. California has almost 40 million people and almost most of them are Hispanic. Hillary got a LOT of votes in CA. Million more than Trump. Take CA, (Mexico II) out of the equation and Hillary got trounced. Take all the large, minority infested, cities out...and there wasn't even a race. THAT is your division in America...city women and minorities...vs...everyone else. They're taking over, even smaller towns have growing minority populations.
There are already laws to stop anyone from going too far.

Congress controls the purse strings, not the president.

Congress works for the corporations who reap handsomely from their campaign "investment" with government contracts and favorable tax laws. Congressmen are nothing but loan sharks...giving out borrowed taxpayer money for a vig.

Interesting post.
I just completed reading "The Smartest Guys in the Room" by Bethany McClean. It is about the Enron build up, stealing and fraud and its ultimate collapse.
I honestly was 100% non regulation but this book along with a few other things read recently lead me to begin to doubt.
For example, Enron used de regulation to spread...ON PURPOSE...the rolling blackouts and the obscene increases in utility bills in California, while they...again ON PURPOSE did this to line their pockets with millions and millions of dollars. They used DE REGULATION for their own gain and the consumer loss.
Think I will take case by case instead of FOR or AGAINST regulation.
There are many who will take advantage of the consumer.
Going to wait and watch
As to the election, i am frankly sort of tired of the constant rehash. As they say....it is what it is....its over and lets get on with the country's business.

How many laws already on the books did they break? We have ENOUGH laws. What we NEED is punishment for these white collar criminals. They live on federal country club "prisons" in relative luxury. They need death or HARSH punishment. Send a message to thieving CEOs and politicians, you get caught, stealing from the taxpayer, you're going to hang.
When you get caught...you hang. It would cut down on a LOT of these crimes. Just like "war crimes"..."against the people" crimes. You hang.
