Interesting observations on some key points in President Obama's financial regulation plan. While this article gives a helpful introduction to the topic, it is not comprehensive enough to give a full overview on this multi-facetted overhaul plan. In comparison, I find the Wall Street Journal's coverage to be more informative.

A balanced analysis of Obama's financial regulatory overhaul. Fox argues that the plan is less sweeping than New Deal regulation because it assumes less malicious intentions on the part of the finance industry. I found this a worthwhile read.

Some of this information seems inaccurate. Gretchen Morgen from the NY Times has described in great detail how there wasn't enough regulation, and not enough regulators! The SEC Office of Enforcement had been cut to 1 person! I'm not sure this is a very accurate article, but it does give a description of Obama's approach.

It is a good explanation of the reforms the president offers.
