I see it as natural, as no one's fault. To get rapid growth, we need activities that naturally produce big recessions. The only way to make sure big recessions do not happen is to get rid of our periods of rapid growth.
The final trigger for any recessions may always be incompetence and greed- somewhere, whether it's Wall Street or Washington- but if you set up a chain of dominoes and leave them in a busy intersection, someone is going to tip them over. It's inevitable. The real root of this recession and every recessions is our system of capitalism, the system that has also produced all our wonderful growth that has made us the most prosperous country on earth.
