This is silly

This is silly.
The SEC did not do its job, contributing to our problems.
The Fed messed up horribly in setting interest rates way too low in the early 2000′s.
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac became the backstops, the ultimate guarantees for banks to issue mortgages that were certain to end in foreclosure.
Congress was warned as early as 2004 that Fannie Mae was in big trouble but Congress, esp. Massachusetts’s own Mr. Frank resisted facing this truth.
And the community reinvestment act demanded the issuance of mortgages, whether this was wise or not to people living in areas that it was claimed had been redlined or denied credit previously.

When you put it all together, one must certainly concede that there were massive counterproductive government policies that contributed to the problem. To call the present situation “unfettered” capitalism is to utterly misrepresent things.

Unions

Lending Brokers, Realtors, NAR, CAR, Real estate brokers are all unions, are worse than unions, they are organized crime to grab people's hard earned money... I still can not imagine why "Realtors" deserve 6% of your house. Can we eliminate them from the system?

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was the most prosperous in the world. We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids. We also were A Common Law Country!

I have set up a place that the poor and middle class in the country can start to get some of this tax money back. It is our turn to have a piece of the action.

Just googl THE```CASH`'`TEACHER hit the top site. The best thing is the PENNY STOCK section they have. Huge money that the rich keep from us.

From M. Oba

For only the second time in my adult life, I am not ashamed of my country. I want to thank the hard working American people for paying $242 thousand dollars plus additional expenses for my vacation in Spain . My daughter Sasha, several long-time family friends, my personal staff and various guests had a wonderful time. Honestly, you just haven't lived until you have stayed in a $2,500.00 per night suite at a 5-Star luxury hotel. We only booked 70 rooms for our friends, staff and family. Thank you also for the use of Air Force 2 and the 70 Secret Service personnel who tagged along to be sure we were safe and cared for at all times.

Air Force 2 only used 47,500 gallons of jet fuel for this trip and carbon emissions were a mere 1,031 tons of CO2. It costs only $11,500 per hour to operate Air Force 2 and each additional plane for the other members of our party group. These are only rough estimates, but they are close (who's counting?). That's quite a carbon footprint as my good friend Al Gore would say, so we must ask the American citizens to drive smaller, more fuel efficient cars and drive less too, so we can lessen our combined carbon footprint.

I know times are hard and millions of you are struggling to put food on the table and trying to make ends meet. I do appreciate your sacrifice and do hope you find work soon. I was really exhausted after Barack took our family on a luxury vacation in Maine a few weeks ago. I just had to get away for a few days. Will write more from Martha's Vineyard where we will spend our sixth vacation this year with more of our family and friends.

Cordially,

M. Obama
