is how much should we regulate and who the regulators should
be. We went overboard on deregulation under Reagan. Under

administration overreacting and overreaching with regulation that
does the exact opposite of wealth creation. If we are to have change

business veterans. They would have recognized the early warning
signs of many of the financial debacles created by the bubble-bust
cycle.

If you go in from the rear, the customer-facing staff are all facing the wrong way and everybody starts their conversation on the back foot.
