As an 82 or so day FReeper you'll have to provide proof that under-regulation is what caused the financial meltdown. As far as I know, there isn't a conservative economist or analyst holding that view. It's the perspective of Paul Krugman and the other Big Gov types.

Which are you, Bluewater2015?

Not gonna happen.  What we're looking at is good ol' fashioned mindless class hatred.  Reality is that producing virtually any good or service requires both labor and capital, but leftists can't seem to put aside the mistaken belief that somehow labor is good and capital is evil.  

Interesting factoid: there are more Americans participating in the capital markets than participate in the labor market --based on the fact that there are more Americans who own stocks/stockfunds than there are employees.
