Um, if you stop feeding the bubble of course you are going to see some relative slowdown until your fundamentals get corrected.

The part that seems to be escaping you, is that this is preferable to pumping the bubbles until they pop.

The mistakes have already been made and a hole has already been dug - choices are 1) temporary slowdown as economy rearranges itself

2) Pump bubble until the whole thing blows up on you aka 1929/2009
