Promulgating Hayek's viewpoint, Prof. Selgin notes:

"The economy is like a drunk throwing up the morning after the night before. 
It is disgorging itself - or trying to disgorge itself - of bad investments it was tempted to undertake largely because of easy money. 
Giving it still more money will not prevent the inevitable suffering."
