There is no one person who did this mess to our nation. There were many prominent players - few more so than Barney. The Obama mantra is that this mess is all the fault of Bush and no matter how stupid he has been it was not his fault and it would have been worse without him. Well I guess about $4 trillion of debt later there must be some adrenalin effect on the economy. It is an absolute crime that the "financial reform" legislation is named after Dodd and Frank. Somewhere along the line the rating agencies should be held accountable. If they had not put the AAA rating on crap the whole Ponzi scheme would have never gotten so ramped up. Investigation of the rating agencies IMO would be very revealing. Bob
