“The House is about to vote on a budget deal, a deal negotiated behind closed doors that slips in a provision that would let derivatives traders on Wall Street gamble with taxpayer money and get bailed out by the government when their risky bets threaten to blow up our financial system.”

She has a point. Why is this provision in this bill?

A good question, that few here are asking. I can see many reasons not to support this bill and Warren is 100% correct on this one.
