    Why don’t the …
    Why don’t the executives worry about the future? Because they plan to have a government job when it all collapses, so they can make money fixing the system they broke. Don’t believe me? Look up “Franklin Raines.” Former Fannie Mae executive, up until the crisis was one of the top advisors for a candidate for President. Made $90 MILLION from doing this.

    No, that system …
    No, that system works as long as the guvmint doesn’t interfere. But in the late 1990s, the President signed a bill that allowed “community organizations” to basically keep banks from doing business unless they did what you see depicted here. I have two books for you to read: Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations and Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged.

    VERY WELL DONE!! That’s it pretty much in a nut shell. If anyone is curious to who the REAL people are that are under the hats it’s explained in another video called “Burning Down the house, and what caused the finacial down fall”.

    The video doenst …
    The video doenst explain the real reason for the crisis. We have three basic problems: a) the debt based money system. b) banks create money from nothing and get paid interest for money they never had. c) the exponentially growing debt due to interest. Solution is to create money that is not based on debt and that comes into the system by an exchange with goods.

    It isn’t safe. It’s the opposite. The bailouts interfere with the market. The loans were not supposed to be bought by the government.

    The firms holding the loans were supposed to go under and then other banks that made the correct moves would have been rewarded, as they could now buy the loans at a cheap price. Now the people that made the bad moves get rewarded and the people that did the right thing are shafted.

    Worst of all, the average consumer has to pay for it.

    It was done safely because the groups backing the act were “essentially” buying up bad loans, or otherwise covering bank loss. It was in the 90’s that pressure by democrat and community groups was strongest, and were pouring the most money into support. 2000 and new bills; The banks having faced so much pressure to make bad loans came up with a solution based on the C groups own practices. They were now able to sell loans to anyone cutting normal loss problems. Things only escalated from there

    And it’s amazing how McCain doesn’t take the credit for bringing up the concern of it all back in the mid 90’s & Bush did as well in the early 90’s, but the wipe Dems wouldn’t listen! THANK YOU CLINTON! THANKS DEMS! IT’S ALL YOUR FAULT & I DARE ANYONE TO LOOK IT UP! …OH AND THANK YOU CBS,NBC&CNN FOR NOT REPORTING THE NEWS LIKE YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO FOR THE AMERICANS. IT’S LIKE WATCHING THE DISNEY CHANNEL!

    This video deals with one half well of the issue, the other half is it takes a lot of relatively cheap oil, gas and coal to build houses and run the economy that supports those well paying jobs. ….and you’re right on the short vs. the long term view. Looks more like a global depression.
