Interest rates will rise to compensate the lender for the new risk of secured asset “conversion.” The higher the risk, the higher the interest rate....

When you borrow money from the bank to buy a car, the bank takes a lien on the car. If you don't make your loan payments, the repo man (or woman) comes and takes your car on behalf of the bank. The bank then sells the car and pays off the loan. Any money left over is turned over to you. Been that way for 100 years.

Now... you borrow money to buy a car. You don't make the payments. Obama comes and takes your car and gives it to a food pantry for them to sell for cash. The bank is out the money you borrowed. You are out the car and the community action group gets free money...

Actually I think after your car is taken, the government then purchases a hybrid for you as long as you’re not in the top 5% of income earners.

BS, there is something called a bankruptcy schedule of repayment.

Contracts and property rights are essential for capitalism and a free society.

Absolutely correct. The Obama posse intends to eliminate these rights on their way to constructing a socialist dictatorship.

Not anymore! Read the case. The trustee can position the case as he/she sees fit. The BYK court will follow and if the appeals process results in the Fed dist/appeals/SCOTUS failing to recognize the legality of a secured interest, the lender is screwed. This is a paradigm shift that is causing serious concern among asset based lenders (a least the smart ones).
