    Zachary if the industry was tired of it just like you are they wouldn't have needed these complex products to deceive people. You participate in double talk, just like they were.

    You want disclosure but you don't really want disclosure because nobody will understand it including the sellers and the so called gurus of wall street because if they did the sub prime market wouldn't blow up like it did.

    The commissions have been quite sweet to the mortgage providers so they want the business back as usual to sucker people into their web of deceit.

    Who were the costumers of these complex options. Were they supposed to be mathematicians. Where would you find mathematicians with a law degree to read these crappy documents.

    Its surely those that don't understand the documents that were targets of these fraudulent mortgages that were intentionally designed these complex products to deceive people.

    The make deceit optional is what the financial industry wants.

    Why not rename their institute to
    "American for Fraud Institute"

    Who is going to offer fraudulent mortgage vending when it is in such a high demand for them. We need unchecked racketeering, here and now. Nigerian princes need an institution too.
