A lesson we learned early in life.  Well, a saying learned early in life but a lesson yet to be learned.

 “We” have broken the environment, the banking industry, the housing industry, the auto industry, the manufacturing industry, media, healthcare and globalization…  Now WE are in trouble!

 Today banks are too big to fail, three Car Companies run dozens of brands of vehicles, one corporation can own every media outlet in a city and a company can export it’s profits to a tax heaven country and pay no taxes in the country their profits came from.

 It’s time to fix what we broke so we can use what we’ve bought.  “We” were spoiled young kids with doting parents that couldn’t see how “we” could do anything wrong.   

 Well it’s time for Rules!  It’s time for a visit to Grandma’s house for a little parenting. 

 Every single industry or element of the economy that has failed us and has or will need a government bailout should have been able to make it with out OUR help.  There are or were rules in place that worked – worked for everyone.  CEOs of major companies were rich in the 60’s, the 70’s, the 80’s and so on…  The just wanted to be richer so their friendly rule keeper changed or ignored the rules.  Now the CEOs are richer and the people are poorer and they want us to help them out of the problem their greed got them into.

 We can’t go back in time and change what happened but we can ensure it doesn’t happen again.  Regulations need to be strict, easily enforceable, easy to understand, very difficult to change and they must be beneficial to EVERYONE!

 Let’s set up the signs at the border “Our apologies for the mess, we are undergoing renovations.   We will soon be back better than ever!”
