[Vision2020] Why are we bailing out all these largecorporations?

[Tom Hansen]

Nah.  The deregulation of financial institutions under the Reagan and Bush 
(Sr.) administrations couldn't have contributed to this economic 
crapshoot, huh Roger?  The deregulation that permitted banks to run amok, 
because (after all) they are federally, pronounced "tax payer", insured.

It seems that every time (with such regularity that you can almost set 
your watch to it) that a major foul-up occurs in the Bush (Jr.) 
administration, Bush simply asks his advisors two questions:

1)  What went wrong?

2)  How is it Bill Clinton's fault?

If they can't drum up some half-baked scenario that, with the assistance 
of some hallucinogens, the American people would consider negligibly 
feasible, they go further back in history and blame Jimmy Carter.

Jeesh!
