I thought he made a mistake in 2002 & 2003 and I said so at the time, but I have always defended him as a guy who took an absurd amount of shite for things that weren't at all his fault.
I guess it's an old dead horse debate for another thread, but seriously, Greenspan's policies have very, very little to do with our current problems.

I didn't want to make the argument too strongly and, again, like I said - a long time ago.
But the effects of those policies are: people are used to low interest rates and somewhat inflated housing prices. Those are facts that have arisen because of Greenspan. There will come a day when interest rates (and even inflation - we're starting to see that in some sectors, energy, for example) will rise again - and if that is not managed properly, it can bring down the whole house of cards.
