It had NOTHING to do with Bush/Obama and everything to do with Clinton being hustled by Greenspane deregulating bank mergers that was set into place after the great depression. A true frog and scorpion scenario unfolded after that.

Finally, after time goes by I'm sure will see more of the truth, but it was amazing how truly close we got to a real life changing financial meltdown.
i agree, i wish the people responsible didn't decline to be interviewed. what blows my mind is that the same people that helped set it off are/were put into positions by promotion or to
"fix" the problem. i kinda wish some of the people they interviewed just said, well, i fucked up. at least they would admit they were wrong
