Are you joking? Democrats have been "in charge"? How many Democrat presidents have we had in the past 60 years, and what has been the dominant policy?
What brought about this financial crisis was deregulation and endorsed corporate greed which are "values" espoused primarily by Republicans. The idea of "let businesses do what they want; what's good for the shareholders is good for the public" is a 100% Republican belief. Less government in the economy is better, right? Look where it got us! The Reaganomics "trickle-down" theory, as it were.
Now, let's have a little history lesson, shall we? Under Clinton, the national deficit actually became a surplus. Under Reagan, the national debt quadrupled, an increase so huge that it was never matched again. Under Bush, our surplus became a DEEP deficit and government spending has increased a huge amount.
