Wait.... you'll have to explain to me how government overspending caused the recession. I've heard a lot of talk about sub-prime mortgages, deregulation of the banking industry, credit default swaps, over-leveraged banks and unregulated exotic investment instruments. Is that all nonsense? The big bugbear is actually government spending?

Because if you have proof of that assertion, that's a real game-changer.
