In the final destruction of all the wonderful laws passed by a thoughtful Congress and Franklin Delano Roosevelt to protect the American people from the excesses and corruption that caused the Great Depression, your totally incompetent governmenthas taken the final steps to maximize the corruption of our financial system. The last two major independent investment banking/ stock brokerage houses have now officially become commercial banks. Don’t believe me? See:

My parents told me about the abuses of the Great Depression and how the stock brokers owned by the commercial banks robbed people of their life savings by having people buy stocks in failing companies, and that money was then used to pay back the bad loans to the bank that owned the stockbrokers.
Bush is destroying our nation.
have you seen this?
We have a lot of work to do
everybody pitch in because America needs
CHANGE!!!

Today its was announced that 9 percent of mortgages are late or delinquent. Astoundingly, One of eleven mortgages are bad.
When those people become homeless, things will get much worse.
The cost to the economy and to us taxpayers for all the bank bailouts that will follow will place the US on the verge of bankruptcy.
Homeprices are going to continue to decline, which means more mortgages will be upsidedown (where the mortgage is larger than the home value). That will result in even more people walking away from their mortages, and HOME PRICES WILL DECLINE EVEN FURTHER
for years. . . .
and revene from property taxes will continue to decline, robbing our already short-changed schools of much needed revenue, so our children will pay the price of government lack of regulation
