The protest started earlier in the day when about 100 people gathered at Morris and Central streets to protest bank foreclosures.

Interesting.

It is hard for us to understand how it is that the banks got a trillion dollars in bailouts and people still loose their homes. Regardless of how risky the loans were, the bottom line is the banks got bailed out at taxpayer expense and still those people who pay taxes have seen no reduction in any part of their mortgages.

I may not be articulating this correctly.

Why should they get a reduction?
They signed a contract and they honor it by paying monthly as agreed for X number of years.
It's the American way.
