Five essential things that must be done, and aren't being proposed by the Administration or Congress (or anyone outside of the progressive blogs):
1) Reinstate the Glass-Steagall Act.
2) Stop the exemption for over-the-counter derivatives.
3) Rescind the Bankruptcy Bill of 2005.
4) Temporary "nationalization" (or call it another word) of the "too big to fail" zombie banking houses. Break them up again. "Too big to fail" is to big to exist in a sustainble healthy economy.
5) Look into closing the Fed, and let the gov't "own" the
money supply, not a private unaccountable front for the
very wealthy and more than average power/status-hungry
elite using The Fed.)

Also, get rid of Geithner/Summers; replace them with people who will work for Main St. and the public interest, not in the interests of the plutocratic elite on Wall St. who (along with their paid-for cohorts in governemnt, who lifted regulations above) got us into this mess.
