    Given the two year track record of being wrong in every particular, Mr Brown turns to the argument of lies, damn lies, and statistics to make his case. A stunning display of bafflegab.

    While we are anxious for relief from ridiculous compliance burdens, this kind of knife-sharpening rhetoric does nothing to make the agent/broker community healthier or more prepared for NRRA compliance.

    Is their no mercy rule for consistent displays of incorrect information?

      I would be happy to correct any factual inaccuracies you wish to point out.

    Mr Brown

    I wish to retract my earlier comment. It was submitted inadvertently, and I regret the posting. My intention was to delete the comment, not post it. I respectfully ask the moderator to withdraw the post, which is not worthy of the standards of this publication.

    Your reputation stands on its own, sir, and does not deserve this kind of offhand sarcasm.

    If congress would actually ask us brokers we would have told them this years ago……this was a mess from the start……

    Your article is spot on, Rick! Now if you can forward this to every Congressional Representative and Senator perhaps it would provide fodder to repeal Dodd-Frank. The only thing that the NRRA bill achieved on the positive side was to provide a “home state” definition that most states have agreed upon. Beyond that, it fixed nothing and added costs.
