The problem is, Clinton obviously didnt fix things, at least not on a permanent basis, if he had, we wouldnt have had people rushing out to get mortgages on homes they couldnt afford for the last 10 years $0.02

Dont forget, Clinton also got rid of greater oversight in the financial industry as part of his 'fix' if he hadnt worked on that, maybe we wouldnt be in the situation we are now.

Im not saying it is all Democrats fault, it truly is a bi-partisan problem that has been brewing for years and nobody has done anything to help the issue, we've needed more gov involvement on Wall St for years, brokerage firms, mortgage underwriters, credit card companies, etc have had to much free reign to do pretty much whatever they have wanted to for the last 10+ years and had absolutely NO accountability, this is what has caused the problems we are seeing today, borrowing and udner-writing by these financial giants on loans and mortgages that should have never been written to begin with.

Most people who are forclosing on their homes the last couple of years cant even afford basis amenities, yet they were allowed to have one, two, three hundred thousand dollar mortgages... That is a disgrace and instead of bailing out the financial companies, the government should be bailing out these people who in some instances, we duped in to getting mortgages their brokers knew they wouldnt be able to afford.

In effect over the last 3 weeks we have nationalized the finances of the United States, the government now owns something like 80% of all the large financial companies, yet people were up in arms about nationalization when it came to the things that mattered, health care, education, insurance, etc... It really is a disgrace.
