its not as cut and dry as u put it but thats the gist of it. The underlying cause of the melt down was due to dishonesty of financial institution that exploited the loop holes caused by decades of constant deregulation (financial Lib.)
There were tons of instances where derivatives were placed on the market and were exposed to the same "toxic" debt by financial institutions (Fannie May/Freddie Mac?). Come to think of it was these same credit rating agencies that gave these derivatives AAA ratings.....hmm
