Edited by: Vogue on 28/05/2011 17:12:10 Well this is what I call opportunity knocks. The USA and its allies has talked a big game of spreading peace and prosperity. But through the 'thieves guild' of international politics it often defaults to turtling and aquiescence. which is the case with the winds of change at the moment in the middle east and north Africa.

Misunderestimated Bush has a manner that is like British upper class eccentrics with a wild heart who born into the top of a social order felt stultified so had a raucous youth before he went into the family game of politics. Like many republican presidents he rolled like a bowling ball.

In the 1970's there was tight banking and finance regulation but President Carter started the ball rolling in deregulation. President Clinton did more deregulation. Bush did exacerbate the situation by tax cuts for the rich from the right wing fantasy that this would produce trickle down economics to the masses. There was a competition between London and New York and other finance centers in offering the most lax environments to do casino capitalism.
I will start to have faith in western capitalism when politicians mention financial crises centuries ago and the need for investment bankers to be doctors of capitalism. But the political system in the USA is broken with the left and right living in totally different moral and intellectual universes. Regulation alone is not the answer. It can stop things from going wrong but it can also stop things from going right.
