Abstract

  As McDonald (2009) writes in Author’s Note, it’s been said that there are two distinct groups of people in America ; “Wall Street” and “Main Street.” Before the onset of the global economic crisis in the summer of 2007, “Wall Street” was a main actor of the global capitalism. But it has changed. We have to think how we can prevent the disasters in the future and ultimately do a better job of serving Main Street.<br>  Akerlof and Shiller mentioned in Animal Sprits; capitalism can give us the best of all possible worlds, but it does so only on a playing field where the government sets the rules and act as a referee. We must merely recognize that capitalism must live within certain rules.
