I don't read Mises, but thanks for the assumption. The causes of the housing crisis are and were, for lack of a better word, obvious. You don't need to read this or that, or even subscribe to a certain form of political thought to see why things happened as they did.

They elected Roosevelt how many times in a row?

If it was obvious I would not see people discussing about causes of the crisis, right? Besides the fact that debt and the inability to pay for it was the main cause I do not saw something close to agreement in this area.

About Roosevelt, ok you're probably right about that, I am not American to say too much about that, but changes in office were not exclusive to the US, in some places some fringe parties got control of the government such as the Nazis.

For me this thread is over here but I would love if you can elucidate some points about your first paragraph.
