Santa baby, I'm not asking for a sable or platinum mine this year, but how about something smaller? Like ending the tit for tat ideological meddling by governments in investment decision-making? I've been an angel all year...
High fives for the elves. www.cato.org/commentary/a...
So Santa, my Christmas wish list stands at two: crypto regulatory clarity and financial privacy (plus my dream for a lot more financial reform). Adding a third:
Now Santa, I know you are a fan of surveillance, but governmental financial surveillance is a bridge too far. Can you restore Americans' Fourth Amendment rights (and reform the Bank Secrecy Act, scrap the CAT, and halt bad crypto AML legislation)?
Hugs to the Mrs. www.cato.org/commentary/g...
Santa, you didn't think there was only one thing on my list, did you? I know it's important to provide you with options in case the elves can't complete a project in time. Next up...
Dear Santa,
Since I've got my two front teeth, gee, I'd like crypto regulatory clarity for Christmas.
I've even got suggestions: tinyurl.com/ypmhb38x, tinyurl.com/5dfnnbst, tinyurl.com/2fus7vt5, & tinyurl.com/3ak7j3wc.
Kisses to the reindeer.
Sorry, Santa. Was a 41-page wish list too much? I tell my kids not to be greedy this time of year, but maybe I need to heed my own advice. Can I try again?
Dear Santa,
My kids said you don't want my financial policy wish list, but that can't be true. I may not be asking for a bike, doll, or hippopotamus, but I've been good. Pls bring reforms like the ones in Cato CMFA's Sound Financial Policy guide: www.cato.org/sound-financ...

Need a Halloween scare? The Bank Secrecy Act's surveillance should do the trick.
Check out this video from the Regulatory Transparency Project. And don't be too spooked by my narration!

Up for a wide-ranging discussion about financial regulation?
Really enjoyed appearing on The Lee Show to talk with
about so many different topics. It may be a long one, but it's a fun one!
Have a listen! open.substack.com/pub/leebress...
Thanks, @walterolson.bsky.social!
I’m here to talk securities and crypto regulation, investor and capital markets stuff, a bit of constitutional law, and various other things. Absolutely nerdy, probably wonky, but hopefully also interesting.
