That was not a "bug." That was a parasite. If you take steroids with a parasite you might just make the parasite stronger.

    2008 was caused by inflated housing prices. ZIRP reinflated the housing bubble. This caused people to not be underwater on their mortgages, but now we have an even bigger housing bubble than we did to begin with.
