the federal govt needs to be completely restructured, and much of what they currently fund needs to be cut out. you don't ignore a recession or depression, nor do you take steps that many think will only end up making a bad situation worse. the endless high dollar spending needs to stop-continuing to cook the books and shift debt to the future only continues what caused these massive problems.
and it wasn't just bush that saddled us with this, it was the entire federal govt, which includes our esteemed members of congress. this problem was created by more than just that idiot-it's been created by a few hundred over a period of time. but the changes we were promised only meant change from R to D. the spending remains.

i think the feds should adopt a new motto---first, do no harm!
