		<description>The fact that Wall Street went out of their way to keep the government out of their turf so they could pursue unfettered profit is their business. They deserve to fall flat on their ass(et)s if the market turns on them.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If anyone is to blame, I would first say Congress for letting the depression-era regulations lapse without thoroughly vetting problems that would arise if the regulations were not in place. Second, I would blame the FED for letting businesses getting so large than a collapse by a single entity would cause a market collapse, recession, or depression.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The bailout of Wall Street is necessary only because  those responsible to ensure the financial safety of the people of the US failed to carry out their fiduciary responsibilities in a responsible manner, caving into greed and politics.</description>
