@avickers1 You're absolutly right. Our problem here in the states was also caused by government intervention through Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac, and yet the leftist morons over here say that the free market caused it. If the free market were left alone, this situation would have been already corrected, but instead we have more regulations than we have in decades and it has indefinitly prolonged our crisis.

@sens19861 Sorry my friend, but *progressive politics* gave birth to democracy. If you take one look at the EU or the USSR and you'll see that socialism isn't progressive or democratic...

Your entire democracy was what ? lol, typical lefty argument, empty and baseless.

@sens19861 What on earth are you talking about? How was our entire democracy 'born out of socialism'?

@avickers1 Oh! Right. Could you get a 125% self cert. mortgage back in the the 70's? Or were there certain criteria to be met before a bank would lend you money? And of course, if you think there is such a"sheer volume of regulation" ask Nick Leeson and Kweku Adeboli how they managed to so easily bypass it?
I love how her voice cuts across all of the heckling and barracking - no other PM has ever, nor indeed will ever, command such a presence.

@MrLion1885 "Deregulated"? Another left-wing meme based in very little truth. The finance industry is matched only by the healthcare industry for the sheer volume of regulation. It is not the lack of regulation that caused the housing bubble and subsequent collapse, but government intervention, specifically, the subsidizing of home ownership through MIRAS, interest rate policy, council house sell-offs, etc.Policies started by the right and reinforced by the left.
