The consumers were not at fault. The banking industry issued toxic mortgages. The $700 billions lent them went for everything else but curing the credit crunch. Consequently,consumers and small business lack the credit to go forward. Thus, the threat of being homeless and jobless causes most Americans to see a bleak future. Of course, increased spending by them is not in the cards.
