Every one of those cases was pre WW2. The economy post war is very different from pre war.
Your argument is a fail.
Every one of those cases were pre world war II, because that period is more similar to the post 2000 deregulation than any period in the later 20th century.
You people repealed every economic protection that has prevented disaster since WWII, and then you're surprised when the economy collapses and the average American loses 40% of their net worth?
And now you're trying to blame the administration that follows your disastrous crap for not being able to fix it fast enough.
Fucking priceless.
In which recession of the 70's, 80's or 90's did the average American lose 40% of their net worth?
Drama queen.
Last I checked, we still had an FDIC. We still had social security. We still had an SEC. We actually had MORE regulation, not less than under FDR. Truth IN Lending, anyone?
What economic protection was repealed? There has not been a repeal of any regulation since Clinton signed Gramm-Bliley-Leach.
How do people become so stupid?
