A functioning brain

Apparently, some people cannot differentiate between optimism and
delusion.

That guy that said just weeks ago he had not heard that gas might
reach $4 a gallon apparently has not had to buy gas or groceries
recently, or EVER! Even his own hand picked Comptroller General says
he has bankrupted the nation! He came in with a budget surplus and
leaves with...TBA (but should be greatest economic turn-areound for
the worse in history). He sent Texas from a surplus to a deficit, why
not the entire country?

The banks were "optimistic" that sub-prime borrowers would be able to
pay off huge loans on low incomes when their interest rates ballooned.
Large investment banks like Bear Stearns were "optimistic" that
packages of such high-risk loans were worth what they paid for them.

Optimism is not what is called for. Sober, realistic assessment of
the situation and possible ways to improve it are what is called for.

More than that. Hoover was genuinely a good man, dedicated to helping
others. He was a progressive for his times. He simply wasn't able to
change his thinking rapidly enough to cope with the recession
effectively.

Well that's the problem right there. Sober and Bush can never be used
in the same sentence.

Nope. Hoover was an organizational genius who helped run WW1 under
Wilson, who just happened to subscribe to the wrong philosophy. Bush
is just a moron.

No, I disagree. Hoover bought in hook, line, and sinker to the "don't
do anything and it'll go away by itself" mentality.

Didn't work.

Then he bought into the "trickle down" line and started up the
corporate welfare. Under his watch, there were millionaires getting
more money from the government than they were paying in taxes.

Didn't work.

Finally, in the last six months or so of his presidency, Hoover
realized that Republicanism was a bill of goods, and so one of his
last acts was to jack up the top tax rate to around 64% or so.

That helped.

If right-wing economics could work, Hoover would have made them work.
