#3  this agency is a child of the Dodd-Frank Wall st reform and consumer protection act

it has overlapping responsibilities with the SEC, Dept of Treasury, credit union administration, FDIC, Fin Industry Regulatory Authority and several others -

if they limited themselves to putting out consumer advisories, they would be mildly useful, but that limited agenda doesn't allow for power, bigger budgets, etc.

#2  Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy)

A system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

#1  You will not make any waves, disagree or complain. Otherwise you will be persecuted until you can't make a living and taxed until you can't pay. Then you go to jail.
