Free Markets are in fact the only thing that does work. True free market economies incorporate failure as part of the system. Other forms do not (corporatism or any of the centrally planned economies) It is government intervention and artificial markets which do not work and have created the problems we have in with our current economy (which has not been "free market" for at least 100-150 years)

What he said at the end was very powerful. "Change incentive structures that bankers have... and NOT to engage in risk taking. Banks that are too big to fail are a one way bet. If they gamble and win, they take the profits, if they gamble and lose, we pick up the tab...." Regardless of whether you feel they should or shouldn't have been bailed out it needs to be prevented. But, let's define "it" it is greed. Capitalism breeds this kind of crazy risk taking.

Read Naomi Klein's Shock Doctorine, and stop preaching "FREE MARKETS!" On their own... they do not work.

Stiglitz has shed light on the dark abyss that is 'free market'. Obama is Bush LIte: More Wars, Less Reasons, why would he support him?

Surprise, another statist who thinks the answer is more regulation and the problems were lack of regulation.

Here is a quick synopsis of the interview: Bush is bad, Obama is good, taxes are good, tax cuts are bad, regulation is good, de-regulation is bad, free-markets are bad, centrally planned economies are good.

You should thank me, I just saved an hour of your life.
