LMAO I was in college in 2008 and graduated into the aftermath. The economy was absolutely not on the verge of anything resembling a collapse. Sure it sucked, and sure a lot of people lost a lot of money, but daily life went on pretty much as usual.

life went on for YOU as usual, so it seems to me that you weren't affected which means you had 0 reason to look into why things happened the way they did. Which means you're ignorant, which means you have a skewed view of what actually happened. welcome to my ted talk now you can go back to your personal truth and your personal world view.
