The Canadian financial system has much more regulation than the US system, proving the many ways the US could have survived the financial crisis much better then it did.
So why isn’t the US checking out the awesome example their neighbors are setting?
“The banks are running this joint” is so far from a joke that it makes me sad.
Canada isn’t exactly half a world away from the US, so there is absolutely no excuse for a major reform of the system modeled on Canada’s system to take place.
I hate that the banks have so much control over everything. They like ruining lives.
