If you don't have a safety net and/or other protections for the masses and you let sharks offer them up financial traps to suck what they have from them, eventually what you will end up with is destruction of the middle class, social unrest, and a country that will be a miserable place to live....unless you enjoy and can afford tall walls, armored transportation, and 24 security.

So your view to just let the stupid, greedy, poor and middle class take their lumps and be ground back into the dirt and dark ages where they came from may be fair but is impractical. At some low level at least the weak need to be protected by the strong or all goes to hell.

All the punishments in the world heaped upon the masses won't change the fact that the masses are vulnerable in any society that allows stronger groups to take advantage of them and that a society that allows its masses to hit rock bottom will in fact hit rock bottom itself...
