- Fill in the blank. ALEX: Hi, Becky. I’m intrigued to see how macroeconomics allows us to explain recent economic events such as the Great Recession that affected so many people. But there’s one thing I don’t understand. Was the collapse of the housing bubble the only cause of the recession, or were there other factors as well? BECKY: Hi, Alex. I agree that macroeconomic theory offers an entirely new perspective on how the economy works. To answer your question, the crash of the housing market was a major factor but not the only cause of the Great Recession. The professor mentioned that the __________ (options: financial, fiscal, government) system deteriorated as well, an event that deepened the economic downturn even further. ALEX: I see. So the bursting of the housing bubble caused the initial decline in aggregate demand. Then the financial crisis caused aggregate demand to decline even more.
