I just got back from a week in the UK and it was interesting to see their take on the mortgage crisis, which is effecting them as well.
They are pointing the fingers at the obvious heads of banking companies- but the interesting thing is they put the biggest blame on two guys no longer in the picture; namely Allan Greenspan and Bill Clinton.
They are saying that Greenspan kept rates way too low for too long, and Clinton pushed for greater home ownership which resulted in loosening of the rules. These two things leave our country in the mess we are in now.
