This whole mess started with Carters "Affordable housing" bill. Clinton upped it with his "Community Reinvestment Act." The banks had no choice but to comply and took full advantage of it themselves. The politicians GUARENTEED the tax payers would pay off any and all debts if anything went wrong, so they had nothing to lose.
So...here we are, in total chaos and honoring the democrats promise to these institutions.
Instead of tracking down the cause of the disease and destroying it, they're trying to cut out the symptoms of the disease with knives. The useful idiots are after the wrong people. Go after the politicians who wrote the script first, THEN go after those who milked it.
I prefer to hold the people who invented fake insurance, leveraged themselves to the point they could not pay any claims and then went whining to the government after they tanked their criminal enterprises such as AIG and the economy.
