The crisis raises questions of China’s ability to tighten product safety standards, despite earlier scandals over exports of tainted pet food and lead-laced toys. “The local authorities almost certainly turned a blind eye to obvious bad practice, and the central authorities ... failed completely to police ...

... up the first savings and loan meltdown (also the child of deregulation.) But the similarities are only skin deep. In the cases of the Roosevelt institutions, public capital went hand in hand with stringent toughening of public standards.
