Funny!!!!

The '91 recession was a breather from the major economic progress made during the Reagan years.

>>> So, I guess this is another 'breather', right?

>>> You'll note, of course, that there were two recessions during the Reagan/Bush years... and that the powerful growth in the nineties didn't get traction until the financial markets saw a solid plan to reduce Reagan/Bush era federal debt interest payments... which were 'crowding out' private investment.

>>> If Congress hadn't killed SEC Chairman Levitt's plans for accounting reform (expensing of stock option grants and a ban on accountants doing both consulting and audit work for the same client) then there never would have been an asset bubble.
