It must be working if it pisses off the banks and their lobbyists.

It might be working just 1% and they would still rend their garments and wail to the skies over it.

Just look at the snit the right is in over the ACA, which doesn't go anywhere near enough to what we really need in Health Care reform.

It must be working if it pisses off the right and the left.
