Consumer Credit: Dreadful

The credit card companies are finnaly running out of customers.
They have out tricked themselves and should be broken up. There is very little TRUST for the TBTF banks. Consumer should deal with local banks where they can see whats going on. STOP USING CREDIT CARDS.

First Time Homebuyer Credit: Promoting Fraud?

I't called discrimination if someone is in $$$ trouble and wants to down size they loose twice... selling for less to a first time buyer, and then loses a credit of $8000.00 on buying another home.
Another boondogle MESS.

Job Losses Higher Than Reported - Comstock

"Figures don't lie.but liars figure'

Modified Plans for Consumer Agency Are Still Doomed to Fail

The credit card companies have been getting away with their tricks for so so so long, I'm surprise more of their employees don't just drop a dime to congress. I'ts no secret the victims are being penalized and the crooks are being rewarded "bailout"

The Credit Card Burden

TRUST what beautiful word. The banks/credit card companies have outfoxed themselfs. The droves will never TRUST the banks for a long long time. Ask a friend and listen to the war stories of their opinion of CREDIT CARD COMPANIES.

Is WFC Playing a Mortgage Shell Game?

If what the BANK BANDITS is doing is illegal...whats new?
Don't know what bothers me more is what BANK BANDIT "did" or what they gatting away with NOW and U.S. taxpayer dollars are helping them.

Credit Card Delinquency Wave Reaching Tidal Force

It's a farce, if you loan people money no questions asked and they don't /can't pay you back shame on you. Now the lender wants to bury the borrower into the ground with no chance of being it back.

THESE lenders are the smart ones "YA RIGHT GO FIGURE"

JEFF nice article.
Could you give your definition of a DEPRESSION.

IMO the very financial people that fostered this mess are now
putting pressure on the people that they harmed. Instead of offering
to help, they are driving consumers into the ground.

Geithner's Outburst Was Misdirected; Read the Riot Act to Bankers Instead

RE: Modifications, after 5 weeks of paper shuffleing. the appraisel came back 25% less than assestment for ALL homes in the area
then might has well said "No" right off the bat... ( just make more busy work for the banks). Checked appraisels with other outfits, they laughed. So much for loan modications to help J Q PUBLIC.

The Problem with Loan Modifications

Another of how trust in banks is a crock. After three weeks of paper work their appraisel came back 27% below assestment value and every property was 22% to 29%les. This was their own appraissers PART OF THEIR COMPANY.
Other sites showed at or near assestment. Bottom line, in my opinion,just paper pushing. NOT USING GOV MONEY TO HELP CONSUMER. Just holding on to the GOV. MONEY

Schadenfreude: Finally, Countrywide's CEO Getting What He Deserves

Enough jokes about a once proud profession of lawers and BANKERS. GUATANAMO would be to good for these crooks. Put them in a CAGE traveling to all the financial centers in the country, in all seasons. The SUN will help their tans.
