Tracking the housing finance breakdown: a saga of corruption, stupidity, and government complicity.
The US Congress is orchestrating a show trial of "predatory lenders". The blame-game was ever thus. Wall Street bankers were hounded after the 1929 crash: some went to prison. But if you track down the root cause of this credit bubble - now popped - the "blame" lies with Asian, European and Anglo Saxon central banks.
They created this mess, if that is what we now face. It was they - in effect governments - who intervened in countless complex ways to push down the price of global credit to levels that warped behaviour, as the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has repeatedly noted. By setting the price of money too low, they encouraged debt and punished savings.
