PRESIDENT BUSH
The mortgage crisis was made possible by changes to the banking industry during the Clinton Administration. However, to blame Clinton for the problems would be naieve and inappropriate. President Bush also contributed to the overall economic decline by failing to stick to his guns in 2002 when he pushed for stronger regulation of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Furthermore, the administration failed to push againt the true elephant in the room, and that was the massive amounts of Mortgage Backed Securities that were being packaged up and sold to investors around the world. (Landler, Stohlberg, 2008)
CONGRESS
Although Bush and the Bush Administration share their blame for the crisis, so does Congress. As sure as there’s night after day, there’s friction in politics, particularly when Congress is dominated by the party opposite the President. Furthermore, Congress’s continued support of a Mortgage tax deduction encouraged the purchase of even more expensive and lavish homes that consumers just couldn’t afford (Factcheck.org, 2008).
ACCOUNTING RULES
During the financial collapse, an accounting rule called “mark-to-market” helped create a self-fulfilling prophecy. This obscure rule makes it necessary to essentially write down the value of assets during times of economic panic. While the underlying premise behind the rule was to ensure conservatism in the financial statement of companies, for financial institutions that rely on the value of their assets to remain adequately capitalized, the write-downs were catastrophic. In fact, Bear Stearns had $18 Billion of cash reserves available to them when “liquidity problem” rumors started to surface. In mere weeks, the company was brought to its knees.
Now that we have an understanding of where the blame lies in the crisis, now we can focus on what was done to correct the issue. We will take a look at monetary policy, fiscal policy, and laws that regulate businesses. The key players in these reforms included Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, and of course Congress.
Hank Paulson had a bad reputation; after all, he was one of the Wall Street elite. He was a financial mastermind, although he received heavy criticism that he wasn’t as hard on investment banks as he should have been. Why not? Well, he was once a key executive at Goldman Sachs. During the 2008 economic crisis, the ...
