Housing Crisis Blame Game

The New York Times had an incredibly well researched and written article today on the Bush administration's role in the housing crisis:

I was impressed with the article for a lot of reasons. First and foremost, this article made me remember why I started reading the New York Times in the first place. With most major print news organizations going near bankrupt and NYT having cash flow issues for the first time ever, a lot of people were turning away from the media all together. And then an article like this happens, and you can just envision families everywhere discussing it over dinner.

Read it, definitely, whether you support or oppose Bush and his decisions. It really is insightful and exploratory on many a level. They point to a lot of early naysayers of the "everyone should have a house" mentality, and bring to light a lot of whistle blowers who saw this crisis coming on as many as 6 years ago. Definitely an eye opening read.
