Strategist says

Who knows what the loan people did, but I lied through my teeth.

And you want to bring that same loan structure back to "help" the recovery....

No wonder your wife says your irresponsible...

Well, I succeeded, didn't I?
I tell my kids I never do these things. he he he. I'm such a scumbag.

Strategist says

I would lie through my teeth again. They do say - "want to succeed in business? CHEAT"

You ain't the only one, carry on. Hell, our commanders in chief do it on TV in front of the entire country.

Are you sure 50% we're just made up to get the last minute numbers that happened.
It literally went from a complete failure a few weeks before deadline to meeting the sign up expectation.

What difference does it make now??

komputodo says

Wouldn't the statement "505,000 have issues with immigration data" mean that illegals don't qualify for obamacare?

I would still rather see him assassinated by immense hirsute lesbians dancing and sword fighting with knobby strap ons. They could squish a few of the male dancers, too, that would be real spectacle.

I guess I am just a traditionalist.

Rosa Klebb style, old school!

This sounds like a dream sequence from a Ken Russell film.

Yes, if you dazzle Kim Jungalongadingdong-huh! with style, he might die of fabulousness, point taken.

Kill it with fire!

Obamacare is going to enable the democratic party to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in 2016. Well deserved too.

Thats some classified scuttlebutt sailor. Zip it!

That was so funny I ALMOST forgot to crap my pants laughing.

What difference does it make? Even if you get Obamacare-your doctor won't accept the plan!

They don't need doctors. They need insurance.

Huh???? Why would you need insurance if it isn't accepted by anyone??

It's called sarcasm.

Nice... Looks like the illegals DO get Obamacare insurance after all...

..."About 1.2 million have discrepancies related to income; 505,000 have issues with immigration data and 461,000 have conflicts related to citizenship information."

Nice try, but probably not:

http://www.newrepublic.com/article/117994/obamacare-enrollment-data-2-million-inconsistencies-not-big-deal

So far, Administration officials say, the vast majority of immigration discrepancies they are seeing turn out to be paperwork issues—an applicant submitted an expired document, for example, or one letter was incorrect in the spelling of somebody's name.
...
Among other things, they note, it's a felony to lie on the Affordable Care Act application and most people are unlikely to risk the consequences. (Immigrants, in particular, would fear deportation; convincing even legal and eligible immigrants to apply for insurance is often a struggle for that very reason.)

As the article says overall, nothing to see here, move along. With as many systems as are being pulled together, it's entirely possible that a record doesn't match exactly somewhere along the chain (e.g. middle name in one, not in the other, name misspelled somewhere, address on your W2 doesn't match exactly, etc.). Something similar happens sometimes when you try to port your cell phone number from one carrier to another, but this is on a larger scale, obviously.

Honestly, does the main street opinion does even matter?

That 25% is 1. realtors 2. builders who employ illegals 3. underwater people.

I'm part of the two in five.
Home prices are too low.
Loan standards are too tight.
They better get their act together or we all sink.

That's how bureaucrats work:
One person screws up.
Two people discover it.
5 people fix it, only to screw up again.

Nice web site Mr. Anderson. I like that skull.

In my opinion they are all crooks and they'll never say it's "offshoring" and "race to the bottom" or the fact that all the money just concentrates at the top in the current system. They are too busy making money by screwing the middle class out of it.

They even built a nice NSA spying system for the 1% to keep tabs on all of us. In case we peasants start to revolt, so they could know it in advance, and Guantanamo those who are not happy with the regime. What a bunch of Stalinists.

Dear God, this is terrible.

This is great news for gold prices! BUY MOAR GOLD NOW!!

The libertarian readership of Kitco, fresh from failing to comprehend the Federal Reserve, interest rates, and bonds, should broaden their minds by discomprehending chemistry and physics.

Can I still get my Hurricane Katrina relief money?

1) no, the Fed will continue QE. Any attempt to halt it will prompt dire predictions of economic catastrophe by the bankers who are profiting from the give away. Where can I get the deal to rent money for free that I can charge other people interest to loan from me?
2) yes, housing has become too big to fail.
3)and they still won't be able to afford to buy homes. Homes in desirable areas will continue to be bought by wealthy speculators seeking rentier income.
4) Gold will rise, slowly at first, then escalate suddenly when the overinflated dollar drops due to being less and less of a world currency.
5) Bonds will possibly go negative.
6) yes
7) no, deficits may decrease a little at first, but they'll increase again once the second longer recession hits. Once the national debt reaches 50 trillion, creditors will put the US into receivership, the value of the dollar will drop off a cliff, and land and resources will be the things to own, not dollars.

If Jesus allows microwaves to convert base metals into gold, thus it shall be.

[also, bonds has a double-meaning there!]

Ah they "print" gold now... and from beer bottles with Kitchen microwaves.
Bugs will have to throw away their gold in despair.
Lol

Unbelievable!

Alchemy DOES exist... in nuclear reactors. Small scale in terrestrial reactors and grand scale in stars. And supernovas.

If this were to work (and no,it won't) it would certainly give new meaning to "nuking" a tv dinner.

Last year in september I thought the Bernank couldn't tapper because of slowing loans growth.

This year they will tapper, because debt growth is taking the relay.

Unless Obama severely cracks down some loans (students/car loans for example), we are going back to the same forces that fueled the previous bubbles.
See also the new jump in trade deficit. Credit fueled consumption is about to jump.

You can still get your clunker for caulkers.

Bullish on stocks is a no brainer since 2008.

Skank Of America..... a name well deserved.

Above the law. Zero arrests, zero convictions of criminal bankers.

Even Bush had 3,000 prosecutions of banking criminals, and 1,000 went to jail. Zero from Obama.

Thanks , Barry. You're now the worst and most corrupt US President in modern history.

George Bush thanks you.

And a "tip of the hat" to our supine corporate doormat of an Attorney General.

No better place for criminal corporations to wipe your feet than on his back....

Just remember that "campaign contribution" that was discussed. Yes We Can.

I was a Democrat for 42 straight years. No more "parties of the rich" for me.

If I have to be a Poliburo Communist (paired with complete socialism for the rich) to be a Democrat, I decline that opportunity.

Can't wait for Hillary ... just hoping she'll don that $500,000 gold necklace the King Of Saudi Arabia gave her for the inauguration ...

Yes She Can

"They better get their act together or we all sink."

No ... maybe you should get 20% down, get your act together.

I voted for William K. Black for president the last time and will again the next time.
