Garr first of all, In real terms the crash of the 80's was nothing compared to total market value wiped off the market yesterday.
M.J. If I understand you correctly your basically claiming that the minute regulation in western liberal democracies such as USA and UK are analagous to that of a socialist system. Simply put, your insane. The UK and US have pretty much let banks and hedgefunds do what the hell they wanted. The US maintans the lowest taxes of all the developed/imperialist nations and invests the smallest % of GDP on public services. There isn't even a healthcare system worth talking about. Your 'invisible hand' is about to smack millions of people in the face. Face it. The last 20 years have been a free market paradise. Boom and bust, which obviously means a few years of a widening gap between rich and poor followed by a decade of the poor struggling to make ends meet.
