In the 90s and 2000s when they took all of the rationality out of who

cash in the system (about $2 trillion of cash that never really

we swallow that $2 trillion dollar turd. We just added to the debt and
put it on our kid's plate.

and what of collateralized debt obligations which ballooned from 1
trillion in 96 to 62 trillion in 2006.
