The burden of Dodd-Frank really is ridiculous. We should dump it and go back to what worked for 60 years until Clinton got rid of it: Glass-Steagall. As it is, only hedge funds are allowed to take risk. Capital for energy investments is way down partly at least because banks, which have access to money, can't invest in those risky projects.
Some allowance for risk is necessary, if we're ever to revive the investment banking and trading business model, which did work well for our country.
