It staggers the imagination that so-called 'competent regulators' and elected officials could SLEEP through all of this as the unsteady tower grew... as the face value of all these totally unregulated and un-backed insurance contracts grew to actually EXCEED the Gross National Product for the entire world....

But maybe then answer is *also* simple human nature?

Maybe they were PAID to look the other way?
