In other words, total government intervention and regulation does help stabilize markets and ease individual persons' safety. However, much caution and consistency are called upon for this to happen as it strives to achieve those freedoms from unwanted outcomes. How can we balance regulation with freedom within financial markets?
It is impressively impossible to have a balance. Even if it existed for a while, it would still be altered not too long after. This balance you are talking about is sort of an Utopia. You have the perfect Freedom while the Government has their perfect Regulatory Framework. How can these two work together? Often, they simply can not.
Much like any thing else Law related. Even for the one Freedom I am striving for the most typically, which is Privacy as even my Username checks out, I know more Privacy for every one means more people abusing it but I also know the opposite is just as true. The less Privacy we have, the more a Government will abuse the lack of it. In fact, most if not all of the Doctrines and Leaderships of the World attempted to create this perfect balance although often with a few consequences. The desired result is often a perfect Society, but it never works in practice. Humans are simply hard to work with. We do not like having a leash but we go crazy if we can roam around freely too.
This definitely does not mean we have to stop fighting for our Freedoms and Rights. It just means that no matter how you do and take it, there will be people who will alter the balance of the World simply because they can.
