Wow, I thought that Obama might ACTUALLY be smarter than Bush. I guess that serves me right for thinking.
So, I’ll reiterate: The banks become a bit too liberal in their issuing of loans to people who are getting greedy in consumerism. The people get in over their heads and the loans fall through. The banks take what they can and everyone cries foul.
The federal government comes in and writes a blank check with the taxpayers guarantee. The banks take it and their exec’s take some off the top (paying themselves first) and use the rest to cover their losses as they can. Then the government expects any form of repayment NOT to trickle down to the consumer? When can I start laughing again? I thought these people had some edumakasions frum collij!
