Bushy hardly did a great job of regulating it though did he? He was the one who also stood by and did nothing whilst the sub prime housing market went to the wall.

To be honest if we actually tried to regulate our markets and make sure the banks weren't so careless with who they lend money to we could of probably avoided this. Of course this is hard to do when you have some loonies who think regulation is socialism..
