Actually the banking laws were unwritten by the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000. That allowed banks to become insurance companies and brokerage houses all wrapped into one with the "Enron" loophole. The bill removed all the banking regulations that had any teeth and the new super duper banks started to play and we payed.
But I know who really crashed the economy. It was ACORN and Freddie and Fannie.
Oh and fuck BOA. I don't have a clue why anyone would do business with them.
