@Maddus Mattus: When a stock market crashes and the crash is due to bankers and traders colluding to fix interest rates and create abstractions like derivatives that hide false assets, then the system grinds to a halt.

That's a failure. You can call it a correction. You can deny that we need to regulate the rich getting richer at the expense of the Treasury. You would be wrong in all cases.

I don't think I have a closed mind and nothing in the conservative perspective you offer is sensible.
