President Clinton initiated NAFTA and since then we have had a slippery US market, constantly sliding into recessions. So he is equally to blame for the current crisis, as he helped create the huge trade deficit that has made lower interest rates useless as far as igniting the economy is concerned. When a tire has a leak, all attempts to inflate the tire will fail until the leak is fixed.
