Granting for the sake of argument that your article is true, going back to 1999.....what did the Bush Administration do to curb this terrible abuse? Or the republican congress? They had complete control over all these rules, ya know! For years and years....

Like the deficits, if you prick the bubble early, so much easier to deal with later.

Here's a quote from your article:

Yup. The conservative American Enterprise Institute was accurately warning about this impending financial disaster back in 1999. If you don't believe me, then check out the New York Times archive.

So why did the Bush administration let this go if the American Enterprise Institute was on the job pointing out the problem? Asleep at the switch?
