      And the 1980 crash, which lead to many banking regulations, which were removed shortly before the 2008 crash for stifling the economy. Stifling and stabilizing look very similar until you get to the negative parts.

        It is just the process of externalizing costs in internalizing profit. Get rid of regulations, take risks, make a lot of money, when the shit hits the fan say who could have known and get someone else to pay for it.
