Bush lowered taxes for the rich and defunded the government.
Then Wall Street ran a $516 trillion dollar derivative Ponzi scheme which destroyed the world economy.
The government then had to bail out the banks, so they would start lending again.
But because Bush defunded the government, the government had to borrow money from the banks in the form of Treasuries.
So the bankers got their tax rate cut, then stole money which the government replaced, and now the Fed is loaning them money at 0% which they are loaning back to the government and earning interest on.
Is this a great country or what?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that you think "or what".
It's a great country.....if you work on Wall Street.
