marketwatch.com — Herbert Hoover -- only nine months into his presidency -- assembled leaders from the public and private sectors to create an economic-stimulus package. Among the measures, Time magazine reported at the time, was a promise from Congress to offer bipartisan support for a tax-cut package.

It is the government's outsourcing the management of the money supply that has caused the problem, so "just let the economy spiral downwards" ignores the causes and the government's role in those causes. Eliminate the Federal Reserve, that is the only real solution. Ron Paul 2008

Don't worry. Bernanke happens to be an expert on the Great Depression.Bernanke is particularly interested in the economic and political causes of the Great Depression, on which he has written extensively.Source: <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernake">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernake</a>

Suzy cited someone's opinion without also citing the facts that led up to that conclusion. I happen to disagree. Yes, homes are overvalued and the stock market is probably too high, but the massive crash that continues to be predicted is very unlikely.

Oh and where do you get the US is now the biggest exporter of raw materials (or even a larger one)?Canada and Russia are. you import our shale, oil, logs and WATER. I watched the lake at my cottage get drained so one of your stupid corporations could have WATER.You are so factually incorrect I can't believe you are +5 diggs.

Both bushes were big spenders. Never elect a Rino who pretends to be conservative. Ala John McCain. They only lead to trouble.

Really out of context. What we need to do is stop supporting people who do stupid things with social security and welfare. That will lift a HUGE burden off of taxpayers and give a REAL economic stimulus.Now if only we had someone who was principled enough to do this. Ron Paul doesn't count because he's a wacko.
