Capitalism is on course to implode due to the predicted excesses of Capital, and the purchase of the government to further the power of Capital at the expense of the State, just as a parasite unchecked will eventually kill its host.
2008 was just a preview of the inevitable collapse if Capital remains unchecked. If regulation is not reimposed, the next collapse will not be able to be fixed with any amount of public money, as it will be totally worthless.
There isn't that much money in the world to cover all the potential liabilities the banks have.
Tell me, just how confidant are you that the rapacious private banks and the people running them will suddenly stop stealing public money if they can get away with it scot free with the help of those lawmakers they bought and paid for?
