The list of demands given is fair. It would go a long way to bring justice...Which deep down inside is all we all want. Even if you see them as pinko commy traitors, dirty lazy Obama and Ron Paul voters, you realize their gripe has merit behind it.
They are fair demands. Thieves should go to jail. To bail out the banks was vile. you do that, you may as well bail out all the moron homeowners too.
Too much favoritism when it came to giving out aid...Glass-Steagall would have prevented most of this to big to fail mess.
Accountability. If the underwater homeowner must have it, then why should not the banks who packaged debt, sold it, then bet against the derivatives and made a killing from it.
Then got bailed out, and got performance bonuses?  |
Fair demands? Saying the government should just let the students loans go? What about my kids in a few year when they go to college and need a loan? Do they get the high hard one or a free ride like these folks want? Moron home owners? Yes, there are a few. How about the other morons who did not default on their home loans? Another high hard one? You bet'cha. Underwater homeowners do not have accountability. They are walking without much recourse. Some who can afford their homes are walking as a result of upside down loans. The picture is much bigger than performance bonuses and failed policy concerning lending money to of all things....a bank.
Gordon Gecko is not going to cutting checks. The protest is getting as stale as the park itself. They should be camping out on the mall in Washington. Not Wall Street.
