    With all due respect, that is garbage. Nonetheless, that is a discussion for another threat, not this one.

    No it isn't, it is funny that all the regulated banks in Europe were fine, while the loosely regulated ones based in places like America and the UK just crumbled into dust.

    It is the lack of control and due care of the corperations which cause chaos and massive politicisation which brought about the worst dictators in modern history.
