No matter what some politicians may claim, there\u2019s actually no such thing as \u2018less regulation\u2019 \u2014 there are only regulations that favor the powerful, and those that don\u2019t. Stanford economist Anat Admati walks us through the deregulation of the banking industry and explains how she would overhaul financial regulations to make them work well for society, not just for the rich and powerful.<\/p>
