MIKE ASKS TIME MAGAZINE’S EXECUTIVE EDITOR RADHIKA JONES ABOUT ONE OF THE MAGAZINE’S LATEST ARTICLES, WHICH LAYS OUT FIVE THINGS THAT NEED TO BE IMPLEMENTED TO ACHIEVE REFORM ON WALL STREET. MIKE ASKS: “…CONGRESS SEEMS TO HAVE PREVENTED ANY LOOKING BACK AT THE REGULATIONS THAT WERE WRITTEN WITH [THE] DODD-FRANK [WALL STREET REFORM AND CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT]. EVERYBODY SAYS THAT THEY ARE TOO COMPLEX TO BE IMPLEMENTED. IT’S BEEN YEARS NOW—THREE OR FOUR YEARS—SINCE WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO IMPLEMENT THEM. IS PART OF THE PROBLEM THE POLARIZATION OF CONGRESS THAT PREVENTS THESE LAWS FROM BEING REWRITTEN IN A SIMPLER FASHION AND IMPLEMENTED?” ON MORNING JOE ON MSNBC.
