FT.com / Comment / Editorial - Obama erects a Maginot line:
The best that can be said for Barack Obama’s latest plan for financial regulation – banning deposit-taking banks from proprietary trading and capping financial groups’ market share of funding – is that it shows he now sees only radical policies can crisis-proof the financial system. But the claim that these ones will increase stability is misguided, if not misleading."
“So you think that money is the root of all evil?” said Francisco d’Anconia. “Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them.” … “Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?” - Atlas Shrugged
