Consumer groups will howl that deregulation will strip away protections for policy - holders, and Romney's own material doesn't exactly support the contention that
more consumer protections equal higher premiums.
The president's mandate
put more consumer protections in place for complications due to missed payments, transfers of borrowers between loan servicers, and changes in repayment plans.
In May, Illinois lawmakers passed the Puppy Lemon Law to help other families that find themselves in the same position
get more consumer protection.
On one hand they appear to make the argument they can't shoulder
any more consumer protection obligations because creditors have cut back on their funding, but at the same time they appear to have done nothing to require creditors to fund them at appropriate levels.
