  • Of course the GOP does not want a rule that will try to prevent their constituents from being financially raped.

    The Labor Department said the rule will require “trusted investment advice providers to give prudent, loyal, honest advice free from overcharges.”

    Where we are now having an issue is large swaths of housing taken over by companies and investors wanting a return. As long as housing and renting are attractive for investment over and about housing and transitory renting, it will attract lots of money.
