Answer to Question 1

Though a bubble may have begun with an abundance of credit seeking a profitable use, restricting credit is unlikely to dampen enthusiasm for assets that are known to be profitable. Indeed, a tightening of credit may impact only those who do not yet possess the lucrative bubble assets and enhance the rewards for those who do. Thus, the credit tightening ensures that the patient (the economy) is thoroughly weakened before the medicine of financial discipline takes effect.

Answer to Question 2
