Why not? - the house committee let Citi write the provision in the cromnibus which allowed big banks to gamble in Derivatives with FDIC guaranteed money. Our 5 biggest banks (all to big to fail) hold $40 trillion dollars in derivatives. 

Not to worry - this will stop in the new congress - the republicans will have the lobbyist right on their staffs.
