That, my dear, has TOTALLY DISCREDITED you.

LOL!

Here's their balance sheet. Feel free to show me your proof, hon.

the Fed is doing just the same for WORTHLESS paper in Europe

AFAIK, the Fed has some Central Bank Swaps open, but isn't buying any "worthless paper", whatever that means. Feel free to post your proof that I'm mistaken.

Why are you SO HAPPY to see this country go broke?

Where'd I ever say that?

One could guess that you don’t really belong on this site and you’re just stirring up trouble.

Trying to answer your questions and figure out what the hell you're talking about is stirring up trouble? LOL!

In fact, you’ll find PRACTICALLY NO ONE on this site that will defend the people that have brought this country to its knees as much as yourself.

You said the government stopped regulating. Then some proof you posted was about a guy who broke the rules and went to jail.

How many TRILLIONS of dollars of worthless loans are you willing to defend

Huh?

and why the hell do you not care about this country’s future?

I care. I care deeply. About your confusion. I'll try to clear it up, if I'm able.

No amount of regulation will make buildings safe from an ocean of water moving on top of it.

The good news is Fukushima survived the tsunami. The bad news is the meltdowns were caused by electrical failure. That could happen anywhere.

I made $30k just as the bubble burst, thanks to people with your attitude about the goodness of bankers.

So, in a way, I appreciate you guys. I’m doing just fine now and will get through the NIGHTMARE you guys are imposing on this country. But I have to admit, I do worry about my kids.

That's awesome. Where did I mention the goodness of bankers?

Any luck on your claim about the Fed buying junk?

You guys? You mean helpful Freepers?

“Where did I mention the goodness of bankers?”

Where you said that they make loans expecting them to be paid back. NO ONE making an Option ARM in California at a value of 5 times income EVER expected the loan to paid back per its terms...unless the house appreciated ANOTHER 25%. Face it, they gambled, and they were going to lose and they did...and they knew that would happen, at some point, as it HAD TO HAPPEN.

“Any luck on your claim about the Fed buying junk?”

I guess you missed the part about the $3.5T of worthless foreign paper.

Expecting to be paid back is somehow falsely attributing goodness? You started the weekend early, didn't you?

NO ONE making an Option ARM in California at a value of 5 times income EVER expected the loan to paid back per its terms...unless the house appreciated ANOTHER 25%.

So if they gambled, hoping to be paid back, that made them good or bad? Your claims are so confusing.

I guess you missed the part about the $3.5T of worthless foreign paper.

Yes, I missed your proof of that. Where did you post it?

It was in your link, Einstein.

Anyway, I know you’ll choose not to believe this, but I’ll post it anyway:

I realize that this is probably beyond your level, but just in case others are tuned in:

Now, if you search for yourself, you might find something that you can comprehend - but, as I said, I have kids, so I REALLY do care about the future of this country.

No, $3.5 trillion in worthless European paper was not in any of my links, Lysenko.

Anyway, I know you’ll choose not to believe this, but I’ll post it anyway:

If your source for financial or economic info is the Huffington Post, I think I may have discovered the source of your ignorance. What were you saying about not belonging on this site? LOL!

Thanks for the link, but it doesn't mention anything about $3.5 trillion in worthless European paper. Try again? And maybe not such a left-wing source?

At least you have a sense of humor.

Now, if you search for yourself....

I still won't find your European paper proof. Or your proof that I discredited myself when I discussed the Fed's guaranteed bond portfolio.

You sure are good at running away though.

You’re more than welcome to be an apologist for what got us into this NIGHTMARE...but, thankfully, most people on this site don’t fall for it.

I would never apologize for government meddling in the markets and the irrational behavior during bubbles.

Anytime you feel like posting proof of your claims, feel free.

That, my dear, has TOTALLY DISCREDITED you.

Prove it, hon.

How about 2006 to present? Like I say, your defending the felons in this mess only makes you look silly.

“I guess I did. Show me. “

Like I said, READ YOUR LINK, instead of just posting it and hiding from what it says. And tell me why the Fed has dumped that much money into Europe and under what authority.

I've read my link. Why don't you read my link and tell me the portion that proves your claim, instead of proving mine?

And tell me why the Fed has dumped that much money into Europe

How much do you feel they've dumped?

and under what authority.

The Federal Reserve Act.

“The Federal Reserve Act.”

It’s bad enough when they buy our crap, but I guess if you’re good with the Fed buying worthless crap from Europe, you loyalties are elsewhere.

That’s fine, I think I’ve got my answer now.

Thanks, and have a nice weekend.
