If the American ... ( 5 months ago by monymizer)
If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation then by deflation, the banks and the corporations will grow up around them, will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. Thomas Jefferson

This is certainly a tragic situation for millions and it appears to be spreading like a cancerous tumour. It would be interesting to see statistics from other States - as I feel this is being downplayed big time.
2 million ... ( 5 months ago by SlaveStorm)
2 million foreclosures as I type this and another 1 million people laid off by the end of the year could double that figure Police state USA. The police support the state, evict tenants, fine people, arrest complainers and put them in the prison colonies. Can you spell False Flag? Can you say FEMA labor camps? Can you say Fascist Capitalists Stupor Patriots blaming the poor for being weak and allowing the criminals to take advantage of them. The way they were dressed they were asking for it
Please ask yourself ... ( 5 months ago by pure2warrior)
Please ask yourself why this country lets a private Federal Reserve bank create money that has no real value out of thin air then lend this valueless money plus charge an intrest rate to our Federal Government, thus creating a fictious debt which is used to justify tax (stealing from the people time and effort) to pay this phony debt. Declare your freedom divorce fiat money reject government theft, plant a garden, fish, hunt. Discover your humanity, reject the New World order. God Bless.
Please note the ... ( 5 months ago by pure2warrior)
Please note the preditor, government still demands property tax yet not a mention of this theft of private property. It is time for people to stand up to these evil scum.

The answer to your ... ( 5 months ago by jbryant13)
The answer to your questions that the Fed is the Congressional ATM machine. It prints on demand, and it is stocked with an endless supply of paper. That way they can show you how much they "care" and solve all your problems for you so you can go back to watching the Simpson's and American Idol, and report to your job to pay for your "American Dream" of owning a home (which the bank really owns). watch?v=hn5EP9StlVA

Incredible!!! the incompetents at the Fed that raised the discount rate 300% in 24 months debating with the people that hired them (Congress), both pointing fingers at the cause of this mess?
We don't need a bail out; we need a vehicle to sue these clowns for malpractice. A loan that worked fine for 20 years is suddenly a predatory loan because the Fed, not the bank, raised the rate? The problem wasn't a lack of regulation but that it was regulated by Congress and their creation-the
Fed

I know people who took out the loans are also responsible...for taking up offers that were too good to be true. The concerned local government should have seized upon the idea of warning people about predatory lending as soon as the epidemic reared it's ugly head. They should have used billboards, radio, TV, whatever...educating the unwary is key.

Banks cannot fail if the US Gov keeps supplying them with liquidity. This is creating tremendous inflation we are going to feel once the banks begin lending the money away.
