It boomed according to certain metrics but fewer people could afford housing and transportation so I'm not sure I agree.

It's hard NOT to have the metrics of a "boom" when the Fed just buys up any bad asset on the market and puts it in a black bag.

Not being able to get to work or live inside because of a national financial issue is not a boom.
