What stopped the Great Recession from becoming the Second Great Depression? The hardworking American people.... The Fed's easy money policy and expansion of the money supply. TARP Bank stress tests and of course least effective of all...the wasteful Obozo stimulus....

Obama's policies, while often negative, were not as bad as the policies of Hoover and FDR in the 30s. Also monetary policy wasn't as bad, there wasn't a trade war at the beginning of the recession, and there wasn't a big boom before it.

Cash for Clunkers, right? LOL Man, you are a liberal - and even proud of it!!! Becoming a liberal by itself - no doubt a true achievement in your department. I notice them all the time, strutting around in the streets, nose up and that self satisfactory tiny smile like 'Here we come, we, the truth seekers' and 'we will be in that number, when The Saints are marching in! - but you others - poor ignorant ones - WON'T' !!!
