Isn't time you and your hero built something rather than trying to tear it down all the time?

I like banks and I like Wall Street. That's where my portfolio rests and safe and sound....building principal.
Do you like bank bailouts ?

Not a problem, would have been just as happy seeing them fail and then going thru a re-organization. AIG, a company I owned (stock), was bailed out. The price tanked, made a reverse split before the bail out. I made good money selling on the upside. :clap:

What investments have you done lately?

Not a problem for you if we have to keep bailing out banks.o_O
I myself feel we should put legislation in to stop that shit. Right now we fail to hold the banks accountable. Banks gamble and we the people are on the hook to cover the lost. Stop being the fool

Let me say again...

5 QUADRILLION DOLLARS.

That's 5000 trillion dollars, per year.
Let me ask it again...

How does ensuring commercial banks don't invest American's savings into speculation collapse the economy?

Do you even understand wtf is going on with people's savings? Why the mortgage crisis occurred?

Sleazy fucks bet that people wouldn't be able to pay their mortgages.. people weren't able to pay, houses were foreclosed, and those that bet they couldn't WON big time!

Those that bet they couldn't were the people that sold them the loans in the first place, and they walked away with millions.

The taxpayers bailed out their shoddy loans that couldn't be paid back (and they knew they couldn't when they sold them) and the American taxpayer - the American middle class - was fucked because of it.

Anyone supporting this shit is either too stupid to know what's fucking them or too stupid to connect the dots. It fucks both left and right constituents.

In the time you invested in watching your hour long video, and all the time it took for you to educate yourself (fool yourself) on all matters in your posts. Combine all that time and then ask yourself "How much money did everyone around me make while I sat idly by?"

But you think that you are the one who has it all figured out.

Lol, people selling short doesn't force people to be unable to pay their loans.

You literally haven't a clue about any of this, do you?

The mortgage crisis occurred because people took out loans they couldn't afford.

It's really as simple as that.

That's how it has to happen

You haven't explained why "it couldn't", NLXSK1's response is expected and hilarious seeing as his and RR's libertarian paradise is miles from reality. If you think breaking up the TBTF financial institutions is naive, dissolving the United States government is impossible.

Campaign finance/money in politics is the number one issue we face. This issue affects us both, liberals/progressives and conservatives alike. The state of things ensures corporations pick the candidates, not the American people. This issue alone is what will elect Clinton to the presidency. Maybe that's something we can all come together on as, even though she'll win, she's universally hated among both liberals and conservatives.

That alone should highlight the failure of the current democratic process to anyone willing to pay attention

Retards like MuyLoco praise the loophole the Citizens United ruling gave to the republicans believing it will help them (even though it get's democrat's elected!), and there are many ignorant like him who feel the same way because of propaganda. Instead of having the '1 person 1 vote' thing like the democratic process is supposed to be.. They'd rather rig the system in their favor when it favors them.. Meanwhile, those on the left want all money out of politics and believe in the democratic process, even if it doesn't favor them.. They make the choice almost too easy..

All of our voices should equally be heard, not just the wealthy ones and the fact that most republicans are working class Americans and vote against their interests is one of the most successful propaganda campaigns ever devised

"Do ya hate the blacks! Are ya tired of them takin' all them real American jobs? Well, get with the new republican party! We've devised a new Southern Strategy! Them blacks'll know their place soon enough!"
First off, your IQ couldn't carry my IQ's jockstrap.

Secondly, why is campaign finance such an issue for you now and not when democrats had a stranglehold on the advantage from unions? You sure haven't minded the filthy money dems have been receiving for decades. Only now that the playing field is even is it a problem for you hypocrites.

Then some flaccid dribble calling Republicans racist...yawn. You do understand that NO-ONE except fellow liberal douchebags (who are already hopelessly naive and full of shit) are even slightly affected by your ilk's constant howls of racism. You've gone to the well way too many times.

Scumbag Clinton is the perfect representative of the present day democrat. You people deserve her and come Election Day, you will happily vote for her.

It's going to be a grand horror show.

Like the Patriot Act, what direct impact does it have on you?

Guess it's OK that Obama pissed off millions of my money on shady Solyndra type projects, or half a mil on those cheesedicks who couldn't put an Obamacare website together and make it run right, or didn't secure Benghazi, traded terrorists for a traitor......

Bunch of dummies, and you re-elected this turd bucket. After the single worst performance of any President in American history, Obama managed to get re-elected talking about Big Bird, binders full of women and Romney's bank account.

Stupid is as stupid does

Why would a bank allow a person to take out a loan they knew they couldn't afford?

If I go to a bank and ask them for a loan, they're going to ask me for some kind of collateral, a paycheck stub, a car/house/etc., so that if I can't pay back the loan they gave me, they still have some way to procure their investment. So why wouldn't they do that for the biggest financial institutions in the country, who are responsible for the majority of financial transactions?

That's exactly what I just said you would say, so thanks for proving my point.

Hey Ben,

I also bought some AIG and made a small profit eight years ago. My big winners were ford when I bought a pile of stock at 1.25 and sold at 10.00 and my biggest gainer was wampq, I bought at 4.90 and sold at 82.00. the crash definitely made for some good buying opportunities .

You should Google sub-prime lending.

You can't even correctly identify the root of the 08 crash yet claim to have a plan to move forward?
