As I am not an expert in finances or economics, I defer any judgment on the bailout and its failure.
But we are all experts in politics, aren't we. Do I understand it correctly that the basic driving force behind the current financial troubles is a failure of a socialist experiment in the housing market? Or is it only part of the problem?
And the politicians, as usual, will blame someone else. (And everybody else will blame politicians.)
It is interesting to note, too, that more Americans are reported to trust Obama's team on economics than McCains' team. Whereas one would think that it would be the other way.
Update. A bit heated in the comments. Chill out, the world is not going to end right now.
