Senator Richard Shelby is against the financial reform bill because it will allow the government to collect any financial information it wants from any financial institution it wants. He makes this claim while having supported the USA PATRIOT Act which allows the government to collect any information it wants on any American citizen it wants.
Is there any more damming evidence that this Senator is bought and paid for by the private sector? He cares more about the rights of our countries private industries than its private citizens. Yes, you the voting public take a back seat to a capitalist entity.
Perhaps campaign finance reform should be next on the docket so we can shift the focus of government responsibility back towards the electorate.
