As well, why is it always the case that new regulations are enacted instead of stricter enforcement of existing regulations? Government is simply too bloated with redundancy and do-nothing employees.

Government is simply too bloated with redundancy and do-nothing employees.

Lines were clearly crossed in both these cases. As you said, it remains to be seen if reform really happens or if we end up with more empty rhetoric and rah-rah.  Personally, I'm not optimistic.   As I mentioned in your earlier piece, Larry, the similarity here is truly worrisome.  The incestuous relationships on Wall St and now in the MMS makes one wonder [and seriously suspect] that this pattern of collusion and malfeasance has spread systemically. The Government is suppose to be protecting and guarding the interests of the American public at large, not the special interests of those they’re presumably regulating.
