No, not at all. I am aware of major bubble blowing decisions made under Clinton Administration, and that the same people are now part of Obama Administration. However, it is quite clear "they" bought Hillary, and once it became clear Obama will be the winner, the great robbery of 2008 took place. It's an indication of something. To me it was an indication of a coming end to corruption, or a turn to less corruption, at least. And yes, I do think W. was, perhaps, the worst US President in post WWII history. This has nothing to do with Republicans vs Democrats. He just happened to be a Republican -g- Paul was a dangerous candidate for the establishment in the Republican party, but he did not get a chance. Moreover, he is very radical and a gold bug. His measures would have brought much higher unemployment and a true economic depression, if he ever succeeded to can the Fed, that is. Nobody can even audit them -g/ng- Of course, folks were expecting more from Obama than he has done so far. Note that most of the robbery of 2009 happened through the Fed, a government establishment that is not directly under control of the congress or the Administration. Any attempt of an audit hit a brick wall. The problem is that nobody really knows what should be done with a mess of this magnitude, and proposals from very educated folks range from letting bankruptcies and liquidations take their course to printing us into oblivion. Most educated folks suggest even more stimulus, which is why this course of action is being pursued. It's not isolated to the US either, the Brits and everyone else are printing like mad too, some less than others -g-
