    "It should have"??? and what Financial Law supports this statement? That was quite an irrational conclusion.

    And 'open season on borrowers'? Who exactly were the prey? It wasn't me, or you, or SabanFan, or anyone that I know. Where, as a nation, are we headed when we start subsidizing stupidity?

    Can't we all just admit that our elected Representation over the past 10 - 15 years have been one gigantic failure. As a whole, the Executive and the Legislative Branches have been more worried about covering their own ass than doing what is right for the people they represent. I know that is very general but i have just come (been a long time actually) to the conclusion that these 2 parties are broken at its core. Until there is a more centrist common sense party we are going to be ruled by these ideologic extremists whose only interest is protecting their own power.

    For as long as i can remember, PACs and lobbyists have ruled Washington. Americans with common sense have no lobby to fight for them/us, so we lose.
