And, I think it was a major mistake on all their part to remove the regs.
Now we see the result.


Unfortunately I have not seen the current administration trying to fix
the problems either. Elizabeth Warren was on TV the other day saying
we are not going to see any effective legislation as long as the bank
lobbyists are outnumbering congress about 5 to one and they show up
with buckets of bribe money.



I think they're trying. Geitner isn't so bad. If you can, read the article
about him in the Atlantic. It's an eye-opener, and it puts what he and the
Fed are doing in perspective. Elizabeth Warren is really sharp. She's
right... as long as the lobbying money is there, it'll be difficult to get
the Congress creatures to actually do something.
