Doesn't "too big to fail" mean, "The Dept. of Justice Antitrust Division should break these guys up -- stat."?

"We're all Keynesians now"

I have been saying this for a while (mostly in my own living room). A return to the Trust Busters is needed before we need to call the Ghost Busters for our economy. All this emphasis on banking and stocks is pure Milton Friedman and The Chicago School of Economics. (To clarify what I just said, I clipped this from Wikipedia: "The school rejected Keynesianism in favor of monetarism until the 1980s, when it turned to rational expectations. It has affected the field of finance by the development of the efficient market hypothesis. In terms of methodology the stress is on "positive economics" – that is, empirically based studies using statistics to prove theory.")
