Why do we allow gamblers to play such an important part in our economy? American Capitalism is fragile enough as it is, being based on debt. We can't afford to continue allowing these degenerates to destroy our quality of life. They put our economy in ruins and we continually bail them out with our, and our childrens', hard earned money. When does the insanity end? They did it in 1987 and we didn't learn - we did it again in 2008. (And that's just the two most recent large bailouts for Wall St.) We need to take real responsibility for our economy. We need to stop listening to the predators who call themselves "experts". Let's stop trading on derivatives. No more gambling with peoples' lives.
