>ROFL and LOL!!!! Let me see if I have this right. The current regulations are not doing a great job so me need MORE regulations to fix the problem? Surely even you can see how ludicrous that statement is. We are already the regulation nation. What we need is LESS not MORE regulation.

In toilet matters certainly. But as long as "to big to fail" is alive as a concept for banks and insurance, I view Dodd-Frank type regulation as the lesser evil.
And around Lehmann, Cyprus and a few Greek times there was not much argument pro hard nosed capitalist evolutionary selection - trying to eliminate such regulation without the clear understanding that no bailouts will happen again would only result in early repeat performances.

Not saying Dodd-Frank will eliminate such repeat performances, but probably postpone them ;-)
