are leading Democrats all about Payday loans?

thats what I call a deal breaker.
we need consumer/taxpayer protection and regulations.
if we didnt, we would vote Republican.

Abusive payday lenders take advantage of families trying to get ahead. Glad to see @BarackObama & @CFPB take a stand.

This really has to be questioned.

Bernie Sanders was the ONLY left person who Voted Against Ex-Im Bank. Very puzzling since this is not a vote any democrat would ever make. Well it is a vote that benefits the KOCH BROTHERS who in turn gave money to Sanders Campaign.

What about 3.5 billion dollars from E I Bank to Halliburton? Google it. What's that all about and how does it benefit the taxpayers who fund it?
