Could,nt the western governments not have say halfed the mortgages of ordinary people so helping the banks ?

And the economy.People would have more money in their pockets so go out and buy items so keeping the ball rolling at least.In my my view That would help everybody and would have kept the system going.Could,nt the western governments not have say halfed the mortgages of ordinary people so helping the banks ?
Yes it would, but they don't want to help us do they. They want our money so they take it. Like candy from a baby. We are all so blinded and fooled into thinking money investing is a good thing when we should be using it at full value to buy goods that will make our lives easier now and in the future. Not giving it all to them to playwith and ultimately take from us.

If you took the $750 billion dollars doled out last year to the banking turds and the $750 billion that they're going to get this year also, not counting the rest of the bail out dollars given, the government could have instead given every single american family thirteen thousand dollars and change. Can you think of some things that you would have done with that money? I know I can.





But instead, let's give it to the banks so that they can buy up smaller banks that are failing and push more fake money around....





We are *so* scroood.
I think we are starting to see the end of the consumer culture that has been plaguing America for almost 30 years. The economy will have to go through a painful correction before we reach a point of stable growth. By the way, why should we use tax payer money to pay off people's mortgages? My house is paid off, what about me. What about people that rent?
you cant keep the ball rolling if that money is just printed out of thin air...it has to hold some sort of value or the dollar is bound to crash like we are seeing now.





you really cannot properly address the situation with out even mentioning the dollar or the federal reserve. you know, the private international bankers who hold our gold ransome and send the treasury dept the bill for the print job. this creates a loan and the american people are responsible for paying interest off of every one dollar bill that gets printed. It does not make since when we have the constitutional authority to coin our own money without the help of private bankers.
