Episode 244: How Financial Regulators Have Become a (Progressive) Law Unto Themselves” with Todd Zywicki

In this episode I'm talking with Todd Zywicki, the George Mason University Foundation Professor of Law in the Antonin Scalia Law School and former Executive Director of the GMU Law and Economics Center.  He is also one of the most engaging and clear thinkers about the vast and complicated world of consumer financial services. He was Chair of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Taskforce on Federal Consumer Financial Law and served as Editor of the Supreme Court Economic Review.  Todd's recent article “Restoring the Rule of Law in Finance” served as our launching point for a fascinating - and disturbing - conversation about how financial regulation has become a key weapon in the progressives arsenal to fundamentally change America. The rule of law is in steep decline in the United States. And perhaps no more so than where I've spent most of my career: in finance and banking.  Financial regulation is unusually convoluted and secretive. It affects us directly every day, but most of us are not even aware of how it operates and its agenda, even though the financial system is an essential infrastructure of our society and economy. It enables people to have a bank account, buy a home, start a business, or simply make a purchase at the grocery store.  This sounds like it could be a commonplace, or even boring topic, but let me assure you, after listening to Todd explain what's really happening, it is not.  For more: https://billwalton.substack.com/publish/posts

Asserting their sovereign interests or "states' rights," many states are increasingly attempting to inject state officials' policy preferences on national and global issues through state legislation or regulation on myriad subjects from energy, environmental, immigration, drugs, labor, climate, health, food, to transportation and more. In what ways does the Interstate Commerce Clause, or the so-called Dormant Commerce Clause, limit the scope of the constitutionally legitimate spheres of these kinds of state legislation or regulation? In other words, what is the meaning of federalism in a constitutional system designed to facilitate interstate commerce? And, what is the proper judicial role, if any, in policing state laws that seek to interfere or have the effect of interfering with the free flow of commerce among the several states?These questions are subject to considerable debate, with significant disagreement even within normally like-minded camps. Some conservatives and liberals alike think there is no such thing as an enforceable Dormant Commerce Clause. Others with various ideological priors view the Dormant Commerce Clause as invalidating only state laws that discriminate in favor of in-state activity over activities in other states. Another view posits that the Dormant Commerce Clause is broader than a non-discrimination principle and should be used to invalidate state laws that unduly burden or interfere with the flow of interstate commerce. And still others take views in between or beyond these positions.Responding to Professor Donald Kochan's recent essay in the Notre Dame Law Review Reflection, "The Meaning of Federalism in a System of Interstate Commerce: Free Trade Among the Several States,"—an essay that emphasizes that commerce facilitation was a primary driver of the move from the Articles of Confederation to the Constitution—the panelists explore examples of current state laws and regulations that expand a state's reach into national and international affairs, and they analyze and debate the different interpretations of the Constitution regarding the proper role of the judiciary in evaluating these laws.Featuring:- Jonathan Adler, Johan Verheij Memorial Professor of Law, Director of the Center for Business Law & Regulation, Case Western Reserve University School of Law- James Coleman, Associate Professor of Law, Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law- Donald Kochan, Professor of Law and Deputy Executive Director, Law and Economics Center, Antonin Scalia Law School, George Mason UniversityVisit our website - www.RegProject.org - to learn more, view all of our content, and connect with us on social media.

His work weaves philosophy, psychology, and anthropology together to tackle questions about the nature of human morality. In this episode, we discuss his theory of morality as cooperation, and the evolutionary and game theory perspectives that underpin it. We also compare and contrast his theory with Moral Foundations Theory, Richard Shweder’s “big three” ethics, and the Relationship Regulation Theory of morality.
