    I don't think anyone is really opposed to this. Consumer Reports Magazine has been a shill for corporations for many years.

    This is not a surprise. It is pretty clear that Roberts is comfortable with rulings like this, as seen in the Citizen's United decision.

    While I do not agree with, I can understand the rationalization given.

    That's not what this is. This is about the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that was created in 2008 due to the financial crisis. Consumer Reports magazine is owned by Consumers Union, a non-profit.

    agree, these regulatory agencies aren't sufficiently accountable to the electorate and should be abolished

    Can we fire people who post D&D topics in the wrong forum?

    I would like the OP to tell me who is allowed to remove the Director of Consumer Agency. Or did they simply pull the first headline news from the Trump category on CNN.
