So banking got to be just like those S&Ls. Banks get to high roll with your money now. Indeed, every money manager does. They will not get into trouble for misleading you or taking high risks in investing your money anymore. And, they can charge you all sorts of fees that are unjustifiable.<br /><br />All those "more than the house is worth" mortgages added to the loosening of qualifications and insured that even borrowers who might could have succeeded , failed.

The push to a service society and killing blue collar jobs, the push for just say yes to college for everyone (student loans) and the push that everyone should own a home and where those people own homes should be controlled through lending practices.<br /><br />The "bailouts" jumped federal spending but were, apparently not one time items because federal spending never fell back down after increasing by $700B in Obama's first year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-77780443545524907562018-02-19T08:58:12.232-06:002018-02-19T08:58:12.232-06:00lot of delusional Dixie Democrats that converted t...lot of delusional Dixie Democrats that converted to the Republican party showing their true colors on this thread this morning! <br /><br />"It was your hero, Obama, who did all in his power to turn America against law enforcement and law and order...............Republicans did not want to be blamed for a government shutdown, so they agreed to the Democratic spending demands........

So, when they are in the minority they go along with their Democrat buddies spending, shrug their shoulders and say whaddya gonna do? And when they are in power, they just never have quite enough power to pursue a conservative agenda, so they shrug their shoulders and say whaddya gonna do, have to give our Democrat buddies what they want or we can't get anything done. That's the battle cry of the Mitch McConnell, Thad Cochran Republicans...we have to get SOMETHING done...amazing how that something is always blowing out the federal debt, expanding entitlements and getting all your buddies paid...speaking of that... I was told we needed to get Thad re-elected so he could make it rain ...WTH...haven't seen those bags of cash dropping. I guess he's been too busy with wedding plans and honeymoons with Kay...whom he had absolutely no romantic relationship with prior to the last election.

American politics has ventured into the absurd, nowhere on better display than the B-list celebrity with the emotional wisdom of a twelve year old we elected to the presidency. Also, I’m pretty sure that Obama’s record on the debt is as bad as y’all say only if you pin on him TARP and increased emergency spending in the wake of the mortgage securities fiasco of 2008 that was primarily caused by Republican driven lax lending regulations. Republicans consistently drive up the debt because the truth is that making major cuts in spending wouldn’t fly politically. Americans like tax cuts, and they also like robust programs and services. What we have is two opposing fairy tale parties, neither of which is capable of being honest and demonstrating mature leadership.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-40496894266083004492018-02-18T11:55:36.081-06:002018-02-18T11:55:36.081-06:0011:24, Didn't Obama raise our debt more than a...11:24, Didn't Obama raise our debt more than any president in history?<br />If I remember he raised it more than all of the other presidents combined.
