Quote:Prolonged periods of either side leads to financial crisis.  That is how capitalism works it doesn't just grow endlessly.  The housing crisis of 04-07 happened under republicans but was largely caused by democratic housing and mortgage policies.  Both sides are to blame for our failures.

 

I will never deny the market has been bad in the past with Democrats but it is true that all of the financial crises in American history occurred when Republicans controlled both Congress and the White House. That cannot be disputed.

 

One of many reasons I am a Democrat is what I learned in American history class about The Great Depression and how America got out of it.
