I thought Tauzin was a Republican. There's not enough of a strong majority that one party can dictate to the other. Also, many of these bills had a very strong majority of votes from both parties. Dems in Northeast and California strongly supported the pro-IPO, pro-tech bills. You don't hear Hillary complaining anymore about the tax breaks drug firms in her state get for locating factories in Puerto Rico.

True, pointing the finger at the options issue is only a political smoke screen. The bubble would have been there with or with out options.
