#2 ...and not properly regulating wall street.

Remember the solution to failed government regulation is more regulation. /sarc off

You don't need more regulation. You need regulators who will do their job. No one forces them to take the job. The job is not to be cozy with those they are charged with dealing with. The revolving doors between financial institutions and the government has got to end.

#5 > not properly regulating wall street.

That's not completely true, they are just a convenient victim, a symptom of the real cause.

The cause? Too much credit. The cause of that too low reserves. The cause of that Basel2.
First thing basel 3 did was raise reserves. Should have happened 10 years ago.
