I never said there were no problems, I said there should be no bail outs.
The lenders and borrowers with ****y credit created this. The lenders
made
huge gains for many years, they should cover their own losses. Borrowers
simply made bad choices by buying houses they had no business buying. If
they can't pay for them, too bad.
Nobody in this mess should be bailed out. If Morgan Stanley wants to come
in
and buy Bear Sterns for pennies on the dollar, then it sucks to be Bear
Sterns or its shareholders. But they all made mountains of money before
the
market fell apart.
I'm still making my mortgage payment(s) on houses that have lost value,
and
I don't see anybody beating a path to my door bailing me out. Why bail out
the idiot down the street that never should have gotten a loan in the
first
place?
I know exactly what happened, and by my estimates I can almost tell you
the
day that the problem started. You, on the other hand seem to lack any
grasp
of the problem or the implications, and have no clue what has even
happened.
Remember, the bank wants the money not the house. The problem is, it is
left
holding the house it does not want and because of its own actions, has an
entire ****tfolio of houses it does not want and can't get rid of.
