could someone explain to me how, with our dysfunctional CEO/BoD compensation environment, we can be debating the separation of CEO and chairman of the board? Wouldn't it be like having the POTUS also serve as the chief justice of the supreme court.

@Foosie - then 2016 should be very interesting, 'cause I heard GOP had Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann teaming up for a run at the POTUS. (fyi - If you were paying attention, Michelle nearly talked Barack out of running for second term, because of the futility, so she won't be interested. More likely Hillary will pick Elizabeth Warren for VP)...can't wait!

Uhhhh - maybe a ratio of 1:1 should be applied; penalize one loan approving officer (robo-signers) for every borrower? ...and the new regs sound pretty reasonable, while saving tax payers the court costs.
Regulations that took effect in California contributed to the dramatic decline. The state had long been recording the highest number of foreclosure filings of any state. But on January 1, a Homeowner Bill of Rights became law, offering more protections for California borrowers in default. As a result, new foreclosure filings in California fell 62% in January.
Under the new rules, mortgage servicers must halt all foreclosure proceedings once a borrower applies for a mortgage modification. Servicers will also face fines of up to $7,500 per loan if they record and file multiple unverified documents in foreclosure proceedings.
The Homeowner Bill of Rights makes foreclosure harder for banks by banning practices like dual-tracking, in which banks foreclose on homeowners even as they are seeking a loan modification, and robo-signing, the fraudulent approval of foreclosure documents widely utilized by banks immediately after the housing crash. The law also makes it easier for homeowners to deal with their banks and gives them legal recourse against lenders.

help me understand, with all the debate about tax reform, how providing for tax benefit for stock losses is a "good thing?" welfare; entitlements, subsidies, incentives, debt, leverage, etc have varied meanings depending on ones perspective.

@kwm3 - not "schadenfruede" which has been GOP psychology for five yrs; biblical ...."you reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor."

I can only hope you nay sayers have been sitting on the sidelines and haven't benefited from the improving economy, that has been rescued from the death spiral. Love to read your comments regarding...debt vs leverage; austerity vs cost cutting; welfare/entitlements vs subsidies/tax breakks; etc. U.S. is way ahead of the rest of the world...so much for being team players. (Get a kick out of AZ passing bill making gold currency...red states are more entertainment then late night TV)

@Pad - not sure I get your drift. But, we're lucky anyone is willing to be the POTUS...at any cost. ...and I've assumed all over-compensated CEOs & BoDs are R
