I think Greenspan is getting senile, today he said that you can stop asset bubbles by increasing capital requirements. That just increases the cost of credit. The next time you have a real estate bubble, you’ll have the same problem, assuming that banks are still in the business of loaning against real estate. If you want to stop this problem, then eliminate the federal subsidies for real estate development and investment, then require people in that industry to put their own money at risk instead of someone elses. If Greenspan really wants to change the banking system, though, then simply ban 95% and 90% LTV loans. Require a bigger equity cushion. BTW, the “too big to fail” argument is a fallacious one. During the Great Depression, Canada had no bank failures. The reason was that their banks were very large. The banks closed branches, etc., but none of them failed. By contrast, the US was dominated by thousands of very small banks, and we had more than 10,000 of them fail. So there is nothing inherently unsafe about a banking system dominated by large banks. The real problem with large banks is that during good times, they don’t provide enough competition for each other.

Amazing piece of writing! This will guide a lot of people learn more about this particular issue. Do you want to include video tutorials along with these? It could certainly help out. Your conclusion was spot on and owing to you; I will not have to explain everything to my pals. I can just point them in this article!

Thank you for this most excellent piece on Jude Wanniski’s forsight. Since Jude’s premature passing, too few accoladed have praised his work. I think your analysis is right on. I will forward your blog entry to some friends and colleagues, some of whom were lucky enough to have either worked for or corresponded with Jude. Keep up the good work. Many thanks… Bob
