Maybe they shouldn't be able to buy that 60k car with credit card debt? If you're also proposing that the entire financial system needs to be redesigned to minimize leveraging and stop the insane focus on growth, I agree.

The more money we put into zero-sum games, the more gets captured by the financial elite and by middlemen, and I think that's really the goal that should be set by regulation here (and that's why it probably won't happen anytime soon).
