Our Republican controlled government suddenly sees a big catastrophe when crooked Wall Street companies like Lehman Brothers, AIG, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac start to go bankrupt. Why isn't it a catastrophe when we already have 700,000 homeless people, half of them veterans? Nobody's bailing them out. And these numbers are growing rapidly, as tent cities are springing up in numerous cities across the US. A lot of these problems were caused by Republican Ronald Reagan deregulating the banks. Now we're seeing that many of these banks have been involved in very risky activities that weren't allowed before Reagan's deregulation. Regulation of banks protected American consumers. Deregulation allowed banks to charge outrageous overdraft fees in recent yars and give very low interest for savings accounts, because they can now charge any fees they want and have any policies they want.
