most of us who have gotten our quarterly retirement fund statements sure do wish the government had expanded a bit in the direction of regulating the insane excesses of the financial wizards on Wall St. The meltdown didnt come out of the clear blue sky - It came because the government decided to "let the markets self-regulate". One of the ways markets do that is with periodic crashes. Most of us dont like that. I bet you dont either. This didnt have to happen and we need to expand the regulation enough to make sure it doesnt happen again.
