And the biggest most contentious areas, including the regulation of derivatives and what makes an entity "too big to fail," remain in flux.

It wasn't credit card fees or normal lending that brought down the US economy but rather it was the toxic wall street derivatives coupled with questionable lending practices by banks that did the trick. And Rs are trying to stop that reform. You're worried about buying something overseas and getting charged a fee when the very things that led to the Great Recession are still in place.
