  • Banks Not Lending Anymore? Simply Untrue [View article]
    I thoroughly agree Sentinel. The economy of the last 8-10 years has been one complete cheap money farce! The quicker we get back to a normal level of moderation where, you actually have to prove your income to get a loan for a house or car, and where you need to follow the sensible metrics that were in place for years the better has a whole our economy would be for the long term.

    God forbid a politician, bank, or CNBC talking head think behind the present quarter numbers!! Maybe if we got rid of all of the our country would been in far better shape.
