Is "Regulation of Hedge Funds" a Contradictory Term?

Bernie. Your comment is very right on. The problem though is whether government intervention is the answer. I agree with you on so many levels (i.e. Wall Street being the biggest criminals anywhere), but I believe there needs to be a check and balance structure in place that essentially governs by way of true market principles. In absence of that, we have racketeers who dress in suits and make money on "spreads" which is really theft from the middle class (i.e. johnny g who lives in "the peninsula")… while we create more jobs paid by and guarantee by tax payers that are essentially useless.

Also, johnny g, I am proud that you were able to recognize that MORAL HAZARD has two words! Right on! Now go back to renting your house on the peninsula.
