On every question of construction [of the Constitution] let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or intended against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.

So, I’m wondering, when all of this deregulation was pursued with such enthusiasm and gusto, and all of these protections were set in place to protect big business, did the heads of the government in charge of finances and whatever economic ‘system’ we have in place, map out the possible direction that these new ‘systems’ could take us? Because it seems to me that this was much worse than looking at the patriotism, and self-restraint of corporate America through rose colored glasses. It seems to me, that it was something like taking a bunch of junkies and letting them loose in a heroine den saying only, “We trust you to show restraint”. Yeah, right, that works. I don’t understand how a government that felt it necessary to create a ‘minimum wage’, however minuscule that minimum is, did so because it realized that greed could not be self-regulated.
