This is the nature of capitalism. The less well regulated it is, the worse it works.

Boom and bust.

How's those regulations working for you now?

That's what we need, more regulations, and then employment will rise, Obama's poll numbers will rise and his reelection possibilities go up too. How perfect! Let's regulate the shit out of Capitalism to the point we can call it Marxism!! Great Plan!

Marxism abolishes capitalism, dimwit.

Regulations against banks bundling mortgages, against mortgages sold rated AAA when they are worse than junk bonds, regulations to hire enough investigators to prevent more Madoff thefts, Regulations to prevent any bank from ever getting "too big to fail", so that taxpayer have to bail it out.

It is not the regulations are too few, it is that the right ones were not in place and enforced. You can thank Texas Sen, Phil Gramm for more of that then anyone else.

No shit, why do you think Obama is a Marxist? And thus ruining our economy. He may be dumb but he's not too dumb to purposely ruin the country he clearly hates. He's just smart enough to get us all killed even though he's a misguided, flawed and a mentally ill chap!
