Discussing regulatory reform, bailouts, Doocy asks: "It's just not very American, is it?"

Regulation is not American?

If there is one thing (out of several other concepts) that must be considered American... it is the idea of America saving capitalism from itself with regulations!

By now, anyone with an extra brain cell knows that capitalism is a monster that feeds of itself if left to its own devices.

All regulations do is allows capitalism to do what it does (makes profit) by not allowing all the profit to end up in one place and instead be spread about a bit more evenly.

I know, I know... spreading the wealth, sounds very liberal. Well, anyone who believes or thinks that the vast majority of people would not be willing to bust ass for a fair shake at all that profit, is either brain-dead or is part of the corporate ideology!

As for Steve Douchy... your doing a dimwits job at speaking the talking-points... Fox-Noise deserves you.

Capitalism without regulation becomes Plutocracy, and eventually Feudalism.

Damn straight! That Doocy is one smart guy!

Free market no-regulation economics with frequent recessions, high unemployment and filthy-rich CEOs ... now THAT's AMERICAN!

Steve, people who exhibit their stupidity on cable every day for a living: not very American is it? What a Doocy-bag.

Doocy must think we should go back to the way business was done before the Depression. People were bilked out of money, sold worthless stock and the stock values were manipulated as well as insider trading. In other words, Wall Street is given free rein to act like Bernie Madoff. Doocy doesn't have a clue.

Darn country I wanna get rich no regulation.....I can't even say that with a straight face.

They're acting like the field was level before the bailouts....it's American capitalism the field is never even. There is always a company that is bigger than you and will be backed by the dollars of rich contributes that you may not have.

* If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.

For the 9,721,383rd time: half the bailouts you mention are Bushco. productions, plus you left some out (e.g. airlines).

You would think all these agencies would come together and pool their resources without the President having to be the one to make (or suggest) them to do it.I am pretty sure President Obama said he would like to see the over site committees or councils come to the table to share ideas and resources.They fail to mention that while doing their usual early morning bitch fest.
Doocy questions an equal playing field,since when did Wall Street play fair ? He also complains what is or isn't very American.Since when is using or emphasizing the term "czar" American? I realize fox isn't the only one but you couldn't help hear the shout out "Czar" I take it Doocy didn't memorize the memo this morning.
