People didn't realize they had to live within their means.

Banks didn't care if people were going to end up being evicted from their homes.

We're at war, and we're spending WAY too much money on it.

Huge corporations drain money away from all the regions where they do business, and all that money ends up sitting in savings accounts of a bunch of high ranking officers instead of all the people down below who made it happen.

My fix for the economy, do business with small local businesses. Small business keeps money circulating since there are fewer corporate cash drains which allows the wealth generated by a business to be shared more directly with the people that are doing the actual work that generates the wealth. Get out of debt, cut costs and work harder to do it. Stop giving 20% of the money you spend to banks that aren't actually offering a service that contributes to society.

etc... this economy pisses me off. Money is fake, the only value money has is the hard work that it should represent. Instead we all allowed several very specific markets to balloon out of control and these markets unfortunately inaccurately defined our dollar for too long.
