On a side note, what's with the banks charging high interest rates for their credit cards. 29.9% is insane, no matter how your creditworthiness is. http://www.gomarkymark.com Nothing like lending money out to people who can’t afford to pay the mortgage alone.

Anyway, when businesses are "too big to fail", whether its banks, autos, or otherwise, the taxpayer gets to pay for a bail-out. How did these business get so big? Manipulation of government regulations which make it nye impossible for smaller businesses to compete. Bigger government will result in bigger business. Hence, the banks using the bail-out money to buy other banks. We're making the hole deeper. The only difference between republicans and democrats is which big business they are doing favors for.

Up until Christmas of that year the United States of America was not shackled to the Federal Reserve System. Which, by the way, is why we had that little spat years ago called The American Revolution to become a Republic in the first place. I knew it was wrong, but JPM paid my way into the Executive Mansion and I owed him. And hey, I got my face on the $100,000 bill which you gotta admit was pretty neat! We screwed you over in 1913.

Yes he had a hand in the deregulation of financial markets, but that doesn't mean that he should take the blame for this crisis. Like I posted in a recent blog entry, it is nothing but our collective greed that has put us in this position. Blaming Alan Greenspan or anyone else in government is like blaming your parents for getting arrested for hurting somebody. Everyone has a hand in this crisis. #11 Evocatus said: "All this started much earlier (1987) when Alan Greenspan replaced Paul Volcker at the FED." You must remember that only 2 months after becoming chairman of the Federal Reserve he had to deal with Black Monday. Surely he could not have caused Black Monday in a matter of 2 months. What I am getting at is that it seems as though we all like to point fingers at who *caused* this, when we should focus more on who is going to get us out of it. Economics is an evolving study. As soon as you think you understand how everything works, it changes. There is no way that anybody could have had the foresight of our collective greed that got us in this mess.

When deregulation was all the rage this act curbing and separating conflicting financial services was an offence to the idolators of the free market ideology. An ideology where the profits were privatized and the problems socialized (=government bail-outs)so to say. Thus creating inflation as a hidden tax. #2 kestasjk said: "I think it’s a good system too, problem is they lent to people who couldn’t afford it" 1. I honestly think it is a very bad system, this predator capitalism. 2. The problem is only partly that they lent money to people who could not afford it. The real problem is that they made these people BELIEVE that they could afford it! This is immoral. By the way it was a nice(sic) sight to see Alan Greenspan say that he made a mistake. Aha... Mr. Greenspan. All this started much earlier (1987) when Alan Greenspan replaced Paul Volcker at the FED. Commercial banks wanted to sell new securities and Volcker did not like that. Greenspan was the *man*, after all he served ten years on the board op J.P. Morgan. Classic case of job hopping between Banks, Corporations and Administrations. Where does come "Hank" Paulson from? Yep, Goldman Sachs. Ave, Evocatus To all the money wizardry here above I would add that repealing the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 contributed very much to the present day financial crisis.

Partly because it is so complicated and partly because the typical model of commercial banking is changing. The commercial paper market is a completely different concept that I decided not to get into. The One, For simplicity’s sake I decided to leave out the complicated matter of commercial banking.
