Discussion: GOP Targets Rule Allowing Consumers To Sue Banks, Credit Card Companies

Rep. Jeb Hensarling, the Republican chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, says the average payout for consumers is just $32 in class-action suits. Other Republicans are arguing that the rule would reduce lending as banks set aside more money in reserve.

Well, which is it, you anti-consumer shitweasels? Either class-action suits don’t provide enough payout, or banks will reduce lending because they have to set aside more money for big payouts.
