Stricter regulations for banks, finally!

So I got a call from a local politician asking me if my bozo bank videos were based on real stories. I told him absolutely and after about a 2 hour conversation, where he was amazed that such practices were happening even here in Portland, he thanked me and told me to keep up the good work. Honestly, it was a satisfying feeling for me to know that maybe the message is starting to get heard by the higher ups.

I came across this article yesterday and it seems the white house is going to be cracking down on banks to push forth more loan modifications with stricter regualtions. Now obviously there is no connection regarding my phone call with my local government official, but I thought the timing was pretty intriguing. Let's hope they are starting to listen to the masses and we will see if this is just political hyperbole or the start of real change.
