re: You just don’t get it
This crisis we are experiencing is from democratic policies starting back to president Carter, not from the wealthy.
The people who opposed regulation are democrats like the chairman of the Financial Services Committee Barney Franks with quotes like this;
"These two entities—Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac—are not facing any kind of financial crisis," said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. "The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing."
The republicans warned everybody that a crisis was emanate, asked for reform and yet the democrats did nothing to advert the problem of there liberal policies.
You want more of the same? Vote for Obama who turned a blind eye on this and received large amounts of money in return.
You want change? Vote for McCain who led the fight for reform of FM &FM in 05.
See the difference yet?
