He says that in the last 200 years there have been 17 banking crises (defines a crises involving over 1% of the GDP) in the US while Canada has had ZERO.

And how the CRA was central to the meltdown in 08

I know you willfully ignorant mutts (you know who you are) will ignore this, despite it is only a 1/2 hour show.

The show titled "What Causes Banking Crises?"

He talks about too many protections which emboldens banks to make more risks this escalated a lot since the 90s.

He said the biggest reason for the failures in 2008 was that banks had to get permission to merge with other banks in the 90s. They had to prove that they were good citizens to the Fed. They did this by giving money to community groups to testify that you were good citizens. Total money given to these groups was about 2.5 TRILLION Dollars in about 20 yr.

The low income people were not the cause of the crises but Fannie and Freddy could not lower the standards for only subprimes but for everyone.

He talks about this at about 20 minutes of the talk.

Also, Countrywide had Jerry Browns sister employed, HUD leaders employed. Chicago housing advocates, etc. Look at this web of influence:

Moz made a trip to FHA, they met. The FHA leader would later worke at Countrywide.

Solution: Federal Regulator and Publicly owned Company Non-Compete Clauses.

Generals, Food inspectors, FHA employees, etc. - no working for the regulated industry for X years after leaving employment.

A General could work for Monsanto, an FDA Honcho could work for Lockheed Martin, but not vice-versa.

Wikipedia: A manifesto is a published verbal declaration of the intentions, motives, or views of the issuer, be it an individual, group, political party or government.[1][2][3][4] A manifesto usually accepts a previously published opinion or public consensus and/or promotes a new idea with prescriptive notions for carrying out changes the author believes should be made. It often is political or artistic in nature, but may present an individual's life stance. Manifestos relating to religious belief are generally referred to as creeds.

Heres a document that meets and exceeds the definition of Manifesto:

The solution is to EMACIATE the government and repeal the 17th amendment.

But the government can be played by the absence of a ruling party that is not subject to election by the voting public. As the bankers and the community groups co opt the government. This was not the case previous to Wilson's handy work. What a complete asshole he was.

What I would like to know is how that cockaroach Deval Patrick avoided a jail term, and even more amazingly, was elected governor of Massachusetts. He was on board Ameriquest and profiting from their crime spree, which made Countrywide look like the Salvation Army.

Truth is, the TBTF banks want the GSE business. You didn't know that? I bet you thought the TBTF banks were the good guys! Lol.

Of course they did, if you can pass the bad paper off why wouldn't you.

Nope if I had my way the TBTF would be subjected to things that would make AF cringe.

The local - in my council, North Cartlon, anyway - pronunciation was closer to MIL-bin. The table chuckled in delight at the lifer fuck's cluelessness.

The languages of NZ and Oz (they are 2 different languages) are based on english more or less. Sometimes less.

US embassies around the world cause more hatred of america and any other reason.

I was hanging out out with teachers in Melbourne

I like Melbourne a lot except for their annoying habit of doing the british status thing. In Sydney they ask how much you make, in Brisbane they ask, where you are from, in Perth they ask do you want a beer, in Melbourne they ask what school you went to.

I took a long holiday in gippsland around barnsedale and lakes entrance. Really nice area. Would like to go back one day.
