Is the financial crisis a naked conspiracy by the Bush Administration to sabotage the inevitable Democrat president whomever that was going to be, starting in 2004?

It seems likely when approached from logical argument:

1. the changes in the US economy occurred on their watch
2. the rape of tax payer funds to corporate America is extraordinary and was the goal of Bush policies (reduce Government, increase funding of the very wealthy).
3. The collapse of Lehman Brothers was always going to bring down AIG and this could have been foreseen and prevented when Bear Sterns was seen to collapse. AIG should have cancelled shared risk on any other investment bank as a responsible insurer.

The conspiracy may or may not have involved the Government but when evaluating a Government, it is important to treat serious omissions as serious crimes.

The Obama administration has fought back by investing in the less fortunate. It is like a war between the haves and the haves less. Who can steal the most from the future?
