There's not much question that Phil Gramm played the biggest single part in allowing this to happen. He spearheaded the legislation that:Quote

Nice try"America will never be destroyed from the outside,

Who is getting the most money from this? The banks who are the recipients.
Who got the most money for setting the stage for it? Phil Gramm (over a million.)

I listed two bills. Gotta read before replying. And since when do you listen to the Clintons?

Just pointing out how your hero says you are wrong. More to the point, those in his admin.
Grahams bill had nothing (or very dam little.) to do with this mess.
You and the dems need to make it seem that evil and greedy corps caused this mess. While they were greedy and did not fight it (but many of them did not get into this) it was the gov and the laws passed that caused this. Until you stop refusing to see this only more regulation that will cause yet another mess will come of it. But that is OK with you. As long as those in the gov come out clean

"One, Democrats in good standing supported the final bill. Robert Rubin and Larry Summers, Clinton Treasury officials whom Obama relies on for advice, supported it. Joe Biden voted for it, it passed the Senate with 90 votes, and President Clinton signed it. Heaven knows, Washington can make bipartisan mistakes, but if the bill were so obviously the road to financial perdition, presumably some of these Democrats much keener to regulate the economy than Gramm would have voted "no.""

His bill allowed exactly what led into this mess.
Republicans are, once again, hoping that most people are fools, and cannot remember history. Unfortunately for them, people have access to better and better histories nowadays (via the net) - which is why the vast majority put the blame squarely on the republicans. That's not quite fair, since there is plenty of blame to spread around, but anyone who claims "poor Phil Gramm had NOTHING to do with this!" can be proven false by anyone with a PC and an internet connection.
Indeed, the GOP is having a problem with honesty lately. When even Karl Rove warns republicans to stop lying so much - you know it's getting bad.
>t was the gov and the laws passed that caused this.
Nope. Foolish investors caused this. The government did play a role in removing some of the restrictions on that foolish behavior.
