The point is that not one political party or politician is entirely to blame or completely exonerated. Both parties have been involved in the deregulation process and the failure of regulatory oversight. Besides your missing the point, regulatory theory and practices have changed and will continue to evolve. Regulation exists at levels that society deems necessary.

From a historical perspective, the Robber Barons of the 1870s-1900s brought the first wave of regulation-the Sherman Anti-Trust Act, the Pure Food and Drug Act, etc. The second wave of regulation came as a result of the Great Depression-SEC Act of 1933, SEC Act of 1934, etc. The third wave is forming and will reshape the financial services industry.

Stop blaming each other and start corresponding in a respectful and positive way. I am sure when Rome was burning a lot of blaming was going on. Well, the financial Rome is burning so stop blaming each other's political party and pick up a bucket of water.

No wonder we are having problems, this is not a game of chicken.
