You can thank that barking idiot Phil Gramm for repealing the Glass Stegal Act and Clinton's finance guru Robert Reich for telling Bill it was a good idea.

You might just as well consult a tea leaf reader as an economist.
Sir, you are one fine human being. I feel as though I've discovered the secret of the universe. Armed with the knowledge of the magic "quote" button, I feel that I may be able to elevate myself to the status of the "truly insufferable".

I believe you have a valid point about the repeal of the GSA. There are a lot of folks that point to the sub prime loans as the straw that broke the camel's back. Personally,I think that the sub primes were more of a catalyst.

It's difficult to research a problem this complex, especially if you are as ignorant on the subject as I am. Coupled with the fact that 90% of the information that one collects is nothing more than politics as usual. Poke a stick in the other guy's eye, and try to make it look like his fault. If anyone has anything of concequence to say, they get drowned out by all of the hacks.

I hate to ask, but can you point out the magic "economics sans bullshit" button?

I'd like to click on it,
Chas
