Wall Street clashed with Washington on Wednesday over the causes of the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression, with political leaders and financial chieftains trying to cast the blame on each other. The highly anticipated drama played out on the first day of hearings by the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, a bipartisan panel appointed by Congress charged with finding the roots of the crisis. But panel Chairman Phil Angelides, a Democrat and former California state treasurer, made it clear that he already concluded that Wall Street - investment giant Goldman Sachs, in particular - were the primary culprits.

Several Farwell school fourth-graders in Dee Dion's class made astute observations Thursday when they talked about why they're writing letters to ExxonMobil protesting high gas prices.Among them was Sade Dennis, 10.

Her comments prompted me to look online for the top causes of the Depression. According to Wikipedia, causes included an unwillingness by the Federal Reserve to supply reserves when banks faced a run on withdrawals. Other causes were: a combination of high consumer and business debt, ill-regulated markets that permitted malfeasance by banks and investors, a growing inequity in wealth, and natural disa...
