There is merit to this claim but again, the CFPB couldnât explain their calculation. There was no formula. Unfortunately, there are many unscrupulous dealers. The other factor is that people patronize a store from a geographical radius. The old saying that birds of a feather, flock together is often true when observing neighborhoods. One dealer may be operating in a neighborhood that has poorer credit than another but that wasnât a criteria that the CFPB considered in their assessment either.
All they had to do was look at the credit profiles for whites and none whites.
The CFPB and DOJâs coordinated investigation concluded that Ally violated the ECOA by charging African-American, Hispanic, and Asian and Pacific Islander borrowers higher dealer markups for their auto loans than similarly-situated non-Hispanic white borrowers.
The CPFB did good things and its âransacking of financial institutionsâ should be replaced with âmaking financial shape up and respect the consumerâ.
So⌠upset that âConservativeâ organizations like the Pacific Legal Foundation, a group that was funded by Philip Morris to throw around op eds about second hand smoke?
Is that the kind of âConservatismâ that should be supported?
Appropriations are the provence of congress. The CPFB did an illegal end run around it, funneling money, often times to groups and causes that had already been rejected for funding by congress by circumventing the prohibition that government agencies may not direct government money to private groups by offering the banks a 2 for 1 deal if they âvoluntarilyâ sent the money where they wanted it to go.
Iâm trying to get a grasp of this. I read the emails, the money was going to IOLTA who would then distribute the money to organizations that had been rejected?
An almost $15 billion settlement was partially approved a few weeks ago by a federal court over Volkswagen AGâs emissions-cheating scandal, which involved the company installing defeat devices in more than 500,000 vehicles.
But the terms extend beyond the scope of Volkswagen and the federal agencies involved in the case, and appear to be unconstitutional.
The Obama administration has essentially found a workaround for extracting $1.2 billion from the automaker to go toward a zero-emissions vehicle technology slush fund (officially called the National ZEV Investment Plan), to be managed by the EPA. Congress has repeatedly voted to reject the fund.
The Obama Justice Department approved the settlement despite its sidestepping of Congressâ legislative and appropriations process.
President Barack Obama has twice requested funds from Congress to help get electric vehicles on the road. And both times he was turned down.
That road goes both ways and everytime a liberal calls President Trump a nasty name their comments are garbage and worthless. Calling Warren âchiefâ is much nicer then the names the vicious liberal left calls those they donât like especially the current President.
