For those of you that don't really know what's going on with the current financial crisis (I dunno if this has been posted earlier in this thread), this is a really good, in-depth column on what happened, why, and where it looks to be going: http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story..._big_takeover/1
I am extremely tired of the blame game. GW"s presidency is over and it is time to move on. The past is the past. I am hopeful in Obama and I realize that he is very different in his way of dealing with issues. (or different from GW). Those differences make people uneasy. It is understandable because change is often difficult to deal with.
You need to realize that while the past is the past, the past is utterly and supremely important. If we don't look to the past and keep the failings and mistakes in mind, then we are doomed to repeat it. Just look at the current situation we're in.
