Because no one -- absolutely no one -- is telling this story the way it ought to be told (except Mr. Antman above). On 60 Minutes last night, Michael Lewis, who ought to know better, said the same old line, i.e., that CDS needs to be more regulated, compensation is out of hand, the free market broke down, etc. Lewis has no excuse, either. He's been in and around finance his whole career. And as a writer, he's beholden to no one. Lewis himself made it plain and clear that big banks are essentially subsidized with cheap government money...yet he fails to assign ultimate responsibility where it goes. The failure of government and of regulation is so apparent. How on earth can it be so consistently and pervasively ignored? I'm not conspiracy theorist, but this is ridiculous.
