what caused the money issue in american politics?

It started with Bahney Fwank and Nutsy Pelosi forcing lenders to give loans to people who couldn't afford them.

This initially sounded like an interesting question; but I'm afraid you lost me in your details; would you consider reposting.

well it is actually simple economics.

when Roosevelt was president he legalized company gambling. when he did this the stock markets went crazy in its own way...good companies went down and bad ones went up. this made the cash flow in the economy drop because the American dollar was loosing value and know body knew about it until two years ago. not quite a few years later, the debt of all the companies is catching back up to us and it is causing a global wide economic crisis. it would take billions of dollars to erase the mistake Roosevelt aloud.

smells like homework to me...do your own research.
