| Hypocrisy and cover up
Can I introduce you to Hypocrisy at it's finest. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMnSp4qEXNM&feature=related http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122247015469280723.html?mod=googlenews_wsj If any one else has info about this what caused the housing bubble to start or bust show me, I'm intrested to see another point of view. -This stinks of corruption and massive cover up going on right now under our noses. Think about it. Last edited by black_ostrich; 10-01-08 at 11:54 AM. |

It's blasphemous and racist to cite the community reinvestent act as a source of the subprime bubble.... didn't you know that? Not sure if your links pointed to the number of subprime notes written from Carter to Clinton and the escalation in that time but iirc it wenrt from roughly 5% to about 30% under Clinton. Anyway - everyone knows it was GW and his friends who plotterd this collapse so I don't know who you think you;re gonna fool |

Interesting points. Seems like this disaster was created by a few for the benefit of a few.

Indeed. Let's find the "Few" and burn them at the stake.

| Typical preaching
[quote=St. Stalin the Apathetic;3389516]It's blasphemous and racist to cite the community reinvestent act as a source of the subprime bubble.... didn't you know that?] No need to be ugly and call names, i think i'm being fair by asking for another point of view. I'm intrested in a debate not pre-school games. Corruption is running rampid both with goverment and investment banks. I'm just trying to get answers- i don't need a preacher. |

No. It was a well intentioned poorly reasoned attempt to get as many people into houses as possible. The policy ignored the fact that some people cannot afford to buy houses. Reno equated denial of loans in high risk neighborhoods to racist lending discrimination and threatened suit. etc etc Quote:
