So, let's agree that throwing a trillion dollars of good money after bad
is a very painful experience. So, would the "red" team have done this?
Or would they have made it two trillion? Just speculation. And who is
responsible for the mess anyway? Some folks think that the "red" team
gutting the Federal regulations might have been a big factor. Was the
"blue" team blameless? Of course not. Enough of them voted for these
laws that they passed. The big one was signed by Bill Clinton, as
President. Everybody, both red and blue, though that deregulation and
the free market were good things.
