After two years of hearings and investigations law makers found no crimes done by the banks against homeowners. But there were crimes against investors who won billions in a settlement. Rep. Issa got a big pay day from Goldman Sachs with the stocks they have him for not allowing Goldman Sachs to testify at the hearing saving them from lying under oath. The spin will happen and you can bet other Banks are just as guilty and will quickly make settlement with their investor. But the American people will get nothing and law makers will continue to allow the Banks to steal homes and raise rates illegally. The blame will go to Obama because people don't know what the President job is or that of the House/Congress and Senate.

Some blame Reagan for his deregulation but wise man saw this at the beginning but as we know many don't know much about US History but here you go

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.
Thomas Jefferson, (Attributed)
3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)

It was so easy as once you lower the education of your people they don't know what your doing. You can't ask the right question if you don't understand how it works.

see you same time same place

    Sorry to say, I was out today making some extra money so I could pay more of my fair share to President Obama. Caught some of his news conference on some news casts. Glad I was working as I would have become ill. My grandmother had a old saying about someone who blamed others for the same things they did that went like this. "That is like the pot calling the kettle b — — — k". President standing up there implying the congress was not doing their job. If my memory serves me correctly, from Jan 2009, the democrats had a majority in congress and a super majority in the senate and did not pass a budget for two years operating on CR's. The president submits a budget this year and it is voted down 0 - 97. The congress passes a budget and all he does is demagoge it. He puts Joe in charge of the budget meetings and then goes off campaigning. To be exact, 33 fund raisers so far to the 3 that Bush had by this time and,, oh yea, 70 plus golf trips thrown in also. Talk about a deraliction of duty.

    Give this man teleprompter and he can give a outstanding speech but ask him to do the hard tasks of the job of making decisions that can be held against him and he votes present then either goes fund raising or golfing. Once in awhile he also sends the wife and the kids on a million dollar vacations on our dime.

    Phyliss, is this really the hope and change you were expecting?

      JustBFair, You asked an honest question: Is this really the hope and change you were expecting?

      Well, yes and no. But when the president rebuked the Republicans his speech rocked and now

      President Obama owns the White House, in a manner of speaking. I wasn't expecting the CHANGE

      of 1 Cor. 15; still he happened. My grandfather SparkPlug Simpson said to me once, "DOn't

      play your Trump card until the time comes." Whatever that meant. Have a nice day. Phyllis
