Free markets didn't fail. They weren't let to be free. Amelia, I respectfully argue that they were allowed to be too free. Lack of oversight and regulation allowed greedy predators to destroy the system. Sadly, there are bad people in the world. The Judeo-Christian tradition of the fall of man says as much. Diogenes of Sinope had no faith in the basic good of man. Look at Madoff, Ken Lay and so many others who have destroyed the wealth of their shareholders, employees and the nation.
We will find the right balance of government and free markets, but it will take a while.
