I was just watching a BBC documentary on the case of this man (which actually emerged a couple of months ago) and it seems to completely justify the regulation of industry in general. A Texas banker, worth billions of dollars turns out to have defrauded customers of almost $6.7 billion dollars. Do I really need to say more than that? How can anyone advocate 'laissez-faire' capitalism when we now know that the wealthiest people are out for everything they can get at any cost. Forget your John Galt's and Howard Roark's, this is how people get rich and this is what our government needs to protect us from.
