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.

This is exactly what I was thinking.

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.
