I tried using The Google but found nothing particular useful, just stories about Paulson talking to the press.

Every member of the staff no doubt already had a wish list for more power. It was just a matter of assembling everybody's ideas into a single document. Nice image on the first page of the news release, anyway.

Looks like these regs are pushing a bit more towards deregulation to me rather a power grab.

And it definitely does not look like they have a drop to do with the current problems in the financial markets.

Just an observation; feel free to correct me if you disagree.

Yeah, those poor insurance companies will get to apply for a cushy national charter if they don't like how toughly they are being regulated by the state in which they operate.
