The world has never seen leverage like it has the past few years. And it will be generations and generations until it does again. If it ever does again.
A time capsule of the greatest financial mania in the history of mankind, told in real-time by regular folks and patriots. May future generations better understand the madness of crowds, and how power and money corrupt.

Stick figure man won't get much leverage with the fulcrum in the middle like that.
After Bushco-Cheneyburton the world will never trust America again. Ever.
And Rightfully so.

Yes ... once trust is gone, it's not coming back from these screwed foreign (also greedy) investors.

Fuck a New Depression. I say pick up "leverage" and have a New Revolution. Illegal Aliens First for a warm up and then proceed directly to the truly Guilty.
Happy July 4th

What are the chances that ultimately we will see all the top management held accountable? Answer: Less than .000000001 % chance. We as a society are unwilling or unable to take our medicine and turn from our foolishness.
Please don’t think that foreclosure doesn't affect you. The decline in property values based on foreclosure, effects the entire subdivision.
The best thing that we can do is help our neighbors by providing information and resources. We can do this through neighborhood initiatives via HOA (door hangers, letters, flyers, etc).

LOL. Take the keys and the home and Put them out in the street. Children First, then adults. Keep your weapons loaded and handy.
Desperate hungry 'neighors' will kill you for your resources.
Call George Bush c/o White House (for now, likley the Big House in the near future) and learn more about 'Faith-based' programs. Only $4.99 per minute charged to your valid M/C or Visa...
Bwa ha ha ha ha.
They can watch the big TV from the sidewalk. Throw ome ramen packages 5/ $1.00 at them. They have to learn sometime...

Do you mean the same neighbors who treated us like lepers when they found out we're renters and not irresponsible gamblers or fraudsters? Nope, I pass. I want them to go homeless so I can buy their $hit for pennies on the dollar. No more Mr. Nice Guy from me.

Uh-oh, not really. I sold at bubble peak, tax free, and am just waiting for the bottom so I can fleece the stupid homedebtors and flippers...you know, the same idiots now chanting "Yes We Can". It doesn't "affect" me a bit; I'm ironing my zillion $500 Euro bills as we speak.
Hey, I love leverage, especially when the socialist gov gives a tax deduction on the interest, which augments the return.
The problem is that financial retards don't realize that leverage is only good on the way up, and horrible during downturns.
