Before you blindly assign blame please do some research first, and remember who controlled the House and Senate in 2000!!!
The “Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000” (H.R. 5660) was introduced in the House on Dec. 14, 2000 by Rep. Ewing (Republican-IL) and cosponsored by Rep. Bliley, Jr. (Republican-VA) Combest (Republican-TX) LaFalce (Democrat-NY) Leach (Republican-IA) and never debated in the House.
The companion bill (S.3283) was introduced in the Senate on Dec. 15th, 2000 (The last day before Christmas holiday) by Sen. Lugar (Republican-IN) and cosponsored by Fitzgerald (Republican-IL) Gramm (Republican-TX) Hagel (Republican-NE) Harkin (Democrat-IA) Johnson (Democrat-SD) and never debated in the Senate.
The bill by-passed the substantive policy committees in both the House and the Senate so that there were neither hearings nor opportunities for recorded committee votes. In substance, it appears that the leadership of the Republican-controlled Senate and House incorporated the deregulation of credit default swaps into an omnibus budget bill at a time when the outgoing president was in no position to veto anything. (convenient for the Republicans, huh?)
The Republican leadership of the house incorporated “The Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000(H.R. 5660)" by reference, as Section 1(a)(7), in a long and complex conference report to the 11,000 page long “2000 omnibus budget bill” formally known as “The Consolidated Appropriations Act for FY2001(Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Appropriations Bill) (H.R. 4577)."
Now inform yourself with Credit Default Swaps because that is precisely a repercussion from the Republican-controlled Senate introducing the “Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000” and is the reason for the economic crash.
