Top Cop for banking in U.S. still pushing anti-consumer agenda.
"In every case consumer protection has the edge and will trump safety and soundness, and I think that is backwards,"
- John Dugan, Comptroller of the Currency.

The OCC views itself as the only legitimate regulator with regard to national banks, but doesn't seem too interested in doing it themselves either.
