Many blame the crisis on the decades-long ascendancy of a laissez faire approach to economic policymaking, and rightly credit government intervention with facilitating recovery. The tremendous economic success of countries like China, where hundreds of millions of people have escaped abject poverty in a single generation, has reinforced support for state-led systems.
许多人指责危机的根源是几十年来自由放任经济决策方针一直占据支配地位，并正确地赞扬了政府以促进复苏的手段进行的干预。中国等国家取得了巨大的经济成功，在不到一代人的时间里，几亿人摆脱了极端贫困状态，这更加加强了对国家领导体系的支持。
