Wasserman-Schultz sabotaging the CFPB

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, that is. See this article on the DNC chair's corporate cock-sucking, which is what it is. Note that both Sanders and Warren are against it and have proposed other bills to address the issue. Some excerpts:

"DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz just signed onto a bill that would gut the agency conceived by progressive icon Elizabeth Warren. Rep. Schultz (D-Florida) is cosponsoring H.R. 4018, which, among other things, delays the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s regulations on payday lenders for two years. The regulations are meant to stop the practice of 'turned' loans, which are additional loans borrowers are forced to take on to pay back the abnormally-high interest rates attached to payday loans, which then leads to a cycle of debt for the borrower. According to an internal memo obtained by the Huffington Post, Schultz is not only cosponsoring the bill, but is enlisting Democratic support for the measure."
