Heres another bite to swallow, I am a home owner with a 1,164.00 mortgage payment 7.25% interest and a full time job, but I cant get refinanced because my credit score is too low. So dont go around wondering why there are so many foreclosures in the paper, the so called "help" from the government is just another smoke screen to get us to "believe" they are trying to help. I have never been late on a payment.

•If this government is legitimate, then why hasn't Congress and the Senate held full and formal investigations and open televised hearings on credit default swaps , collateralized debt obligations and fraudulently securitized mortgage backed securities?
•Please explain to the American people why the largest property crime in the history of civilization still goes uninvestigated and why no one has been prosecuted.

The range of readers/commentors on this site is fascinating. The latest poll is that 86% of the country mistrusts Congress and that we're still headed in the wrong direction. I agree that most of Congress has to go, but people are turning away from incumbents and voting in the new person, who tends to be a Republican. Since it's the Repubs who got us here, it means we will continue our downward death spiral. I really do think it's game over unless we take to the streets–and we start with Wall Street first.

We are in the final part of the process just prior to the end of a great nation. Democracy made us great when we had government of the people by the people and for the people. Our greatness is being eradicated by government of the people by the lobbyists for the powerful corporations and special interests. Many books have been written about this process and many more will be written in the future. The Golden Rule has been reduced to "He who has the gold makes the rule!" I was born in 1934. I remember F.D.R. and all who followed after him in D.C. I especially remember Eisenhower when in his last State of the Union message he warned all of us of the great danger of Corporations having too much influence on our elected officials. Nobody listened then and nobody is listening now. Too bad.

We will end up hunting the perps down like we did the Nazi's after WW 2. Friedman, Paulson, Turbo Timmy and all the rest when this now defunct system collaspes.
They know that and that is why they will all jump on a flight to China, South America, ect to evade prosocution. They are all making the exit plan now.
I propose getting them now, either through legal means, but Oh I forgot, the justice system is just as corrupt!
What thieir real fear is semtax vests going off in Goldman Sach offices, individuals taking execution into thir own hands!
Remember, 15 million plus out a job because of this bullshit, sooooooo at least a few of them are capable of taking on the task! Fortunate the greedy bastards are still around to take out , but it must be done soon!

The challenge with this stuff is distilling it down to a simple message that the masses will understand and react to. This a huge challenge as most do not even know who Geitner, Bernanke or Paulson are much less CDO's etc.

I agree with Flip (reply above) that the wave of joe six pack discontent needs be that much greater now, considering that the Supreme Court decided that corporations have the same rights as living, breathing citizens (if not greater rights…. considering the access to capital they have).

Do any of you really think writing congress is worth the effort?
Especially after the recent supreme court ruling concerning corporate campaign donations.
With that ruling democracy died.
