Besides, yes not all recessions are the same but that's no excuse to just entirely dismiss the whole question, that's nirvana fallacy. If we went by the theory of "any comparison that's not exact to the smallest detail is entirely invalid," we'd never learn anything.
This is a real pet peeve of mine. Nit picking an analogy does not make you look smart. It makes you look like you don't know what an analogy is.
Besides, yes! Save the children...by starting up a huge government plan and tax everyone to fund it thus making the populace even POORER. Typical politician reaction to...well pretty much everything.
