the only ones to blame for the lending crisis is the lenders


if they do not qualify do not give them the money

granted some are due to free trade agreement job loss but that started way b4 bush

but if they did not give money almost anyone this would have never happened

i feel it is the plan of the federal reservee to take control of the country and the world

hopefully obama and the dems will abolish doing busines with the federal reserve (it is a private entity


well...starting with the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977...which was put on steroids during the Clinton administration...Congress began intimidating banks and other financial institutions into making loans...so called subprime loans...to high risk homebuyers and businesses...the so called carrot offered...was that these high-risk loans would be purchased by the government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac...just a few short years ago Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and Maxine Waters all vouched for the soundness of Fannie and Freddie...Dodd actually saying..."riding to the rescue" to help people get home mortgage loans... adding that they "need to do more" to help high-risk borrowers get better loans...the collapse of frannie...and... freddie is not a failure of the free market...( which the Dems keep insisting )..lending institutions in a free market would not have taken on the high-risk loans... they were forced to...by the government....the solution is not a taxpayer bailout...the solution is to let them fail...and...allow the people who invested in them, as well as the people who purchased homes they couldn't afford...suffer the losses...the original poster is absolutely correct...this whole mess all began in the name of Fair Housing...greed, and stupidity...add to that...Democrats trying to make people feel good about themselves...[ the is a Democrat imposed problem ]...so...here we stand today...with a government induced crisis...while being led to believe that we now have a " government solution "...in my opinion...sadly...this is just the tip of the iceberg...



and did the federal reserve pressure the govt

you jnow the ones making the interest on the 700 billion


another forgotten part of the problem...you are corrcet...Allan Greenspan, and the " easy "...monetary policy...played a big part in this whole mess...

My brother's wife called me several years ago......Seems she had a cregit card that she kept at the $5,000 limit slaphead

The credit card company notified her that they were raising the interest rate on her card due to the balance remaining at $5,000. She wanted to know if they could do thatslaphead

"DUHHHHHH.....of course... they are out $5,000 because of you!" 'BUT I make a payment every month,'...."Then WHY is your balance at $5,000?"
"Because I go buy somethimg else...."frustrated frustrated


LINDYYwhat
Yes you have people like that. We always have from the begining. So now all these "Types" of people caused this melt down? I dont buy that. It was a facter but a small one compared to the rest. Those people have never "Busted" the bank before unless the bank let it.


JUST PROVING the economic situation is a 2-way street!!!!frustrated frustrated frustrated frustrated

Im just trying to understand it. Flordia was a major player in it. It has seen one of the most growths with one of the most costs. I have another thread going http://mingle2.com/topic/show/181110 Would love to hear about the markets in other areas compared to mine. Just specifics nothing personal.
