The day they handed out the bailouts without breaking up the banks and reinstating Glass-Steagal they pretty much guaranteed another crash.

But the next meltdown is going to happen any day now. I already see signs of it where I am with crazy overbuilding, stagnant wages, overborrowing and expansion.

I also fear that if Sanders is successful in pulling an FDR saving capitalism again, that we will simply be kicking the can forward again. This isn't working for us, or our world. We need a new system.
