That's beyond an over generalization and ignorant to boot. We are not going to suffer a deep recession due to deregulation. That’s beyond an over generalization and ignorant to boot.

I agree the unhinge greed needs to be contained by government but I believe that other than providing security, calculating economic risks and endorsing fiscal opportunity the federal government should a play a small role in the markets. Especially in the case buoying up failing institutions that didn't understand the risks they were taking and subsidizing industries that compromise the ideas of fair trade in developing countries. It seems the justification for these bailouts goes along the same lines as those for warrant-less wiretapping in that they are both perpetuated by fear of poverty and boogey men. @KoolAid

Deregulation allowed the bubble to grow without the capital to back it and now we are going to suffer a deep recession because of it.

This is the free market correcting itself, making poor all the weak who rely on shit lending practices to function. Our economy hasn't gotten bigger, just fatter. This recession is the liposuction this country needs to correct itself. Now excuse me while the invisible hand gives you the finger.
