Either the government wants more control over the market, and failing banks that require bailouts does that or they're just receiving so much money under the table from these people it behooves them to bail them out. I think stopping the bailout is in effect mostly enough "regulation" on its own. Anything else requires very good analysts watching this stuff and enforcing the regulation. From what I've seen, the government is very bad at enforcing most of their regulation. They're unable to do it with firearms, and they're unable to do it with the financial industry.
