We've seen how this works, as it's been happening for years - the "weakening" of laws that is.
There was once a "balanced budget" law in the 90's and we actually had a budget surplus one year. A soon as there was a change in the Congress, then administrations, it was quickly "weakened" until it no longer existed - giving us 545 billion dollar budget deficits.
There were some campaign finance reforms accomplished some years ago, right before the e******ns , after the e******ns - the laws were steadily "weakened", until we arrived at the Citizens United unlimited dark money era.
After the crash of 08, a whole slew of "protections" were put in place to prevent a repeat of the collapse. As soon as there was a change in the Congress, then Administrations, those were quickly "weakened", until they no longer exist.
The politicians realize that the American people will not tolerate another such bank bailout but are quite adept at coming up with innovative ways to screw their constituents. They still believe that their " they did it - no THEY did it " defense still works, as in, blaming each other confuses people about who to blame.
I think they are deluding themselves. We now know to blame ALL of them, regardless of which party they pretend to belong to.
