You sound pretty far gone. I don't know if you can be helped. In a nutshell, nearly everything governments does, it does very poorly. The less government the better. Sure we need some, for our military, roads ect. but for the most part the less, the better!

WHy don't you link an article to the huffington post for justification also. Fannie and Freddie were deeply at the root of the financial problems. Things like Credit Default Swaps just made the problem bigger than it should have been. If private banks did not adhere to CRA rules they would be penalized. How about you insert some VERY pertinent facts into your analysis.

So "Liberal" essentially assumes that "We The People" are self-disciplined enough to not need a micromanaging authoritarian government to interfere in our personal decisions. Conservatives think "Liberal" is evil and can't work.

Likewise, "Neoliberal" essentially assumes that Big Business is restrained enough to not need an authoritarian regulatory government. Conservatives think "Neoliberal" is good and are willing to gamble the health of the nation on it.

Why is it that the inherent evil in humans is suddenly ignored when the pretend Big Business is a person? It don't add up.

Greenspan thought deregulation would bring a self governess in the banking system. These greedy CEO’s were supposed to police each other, not con each other. Deregulation bought out the worst of Wall Street, and America was pillaged. This greed and neglect of self governess have bought on the worst financial storm that the world has ever faced. Once the dust settles, America should band together and bring on a class action suit against the actions of these CEO’s. According to Greenspan, “believed lending institutions would do a good job of protecting their shareholders” instead, they profited, jump ship and left the American tax payers holding the bag (i.e. http://www.BuyMyHouseBefore...).
