A thought just came to me and I would like to see how others might look at this.
When Clinton was President and they were balancing the budget, interest rates went down to record levels and the housing boom happened.
Of course this was terrible for people who had scads of money because they made so much less in interest.
Could it be that lowering taxes for the rich and sending the country into huge debt was a plan to get interest rates back to levels that the rich can again make unearned income off of?
The plan is so simple and maybe just overlooked by the average citizen who is not considered elite.
Any thoughts?
