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.

Yes, it's very reasonable. Of course, the rest of what I have to say is too, but it's so much easier not to highlight that. I do keep in mind what else people say, and you've had no reservations about forwarding Libertarian ideology (championed recently by Ron Paul) and claiming things like it's hard to listen to Ron Paul and find anything to disagree with or about how some Ron Paul video hit the nail on the head. I have no qualms sharing my conclusions about of how you assume your argument if you aren't gonna make a good one.
All recessions not being the same is entirely a justification to question the veracity of your baseless claim that a particular variable was the sole cause, which is what I did. Nice attempt at a strawman argument (see, I can actually spot a logical fallacy instead of making one up). I have no idea what that second sentence is supposed to mean.
