  There's a financial crisis of one type or another every 7 years. Each time, more and more regulation is put in place to make sure it doesn't happen again. It's only a matter of time before congress hangs too many ornaments on that particular christmas tree and it falls over. I remember when Sarbanes Oxley was passed in 2002. I was in college and one of my professors was advocating becoming a SAP engineer specializing in SOX compliance. The cost of compliance was estimated to be gigantic, which meant lots of highly paid (but boring) work for enterprise programmers.
