E,
While you're in the research mode. Go back and find how derivatives came to be allowed. How investment firms and banks came to be allowed to be connected. How sub standard loans came to be permitted. How banks came to be allowed to take risks with depositors money when once that was completely prohibited.
And don't worry, the fault will NOT be with Liberals and/or Democrats. Both parties changed/altered/repealed long established working regulations and Presidents of both parties signed the incipient problems into law.
BE highly suspicious of any "new' regulations proposed, imposed, on the financial world. Simple solution, reestablish the old regs that were tossed aside for political expediency. [Some large personal fortunes would be lost] See how they function in today's world, then if necessary adjust those regs. Take the known, avoid another unknown with its inherent, unintended consequences.
