It just dawned on M$NBC that people who have lost their jobs |
|
are losing their homes to foreclosure. Took them totally by surprise and it's now news to them.
On M$NBC now.

4. You know what really sucks? |
|
What really sucks is that the very banks that are foreclosing on people who can't pay their mortgages because they've lost their jobs are the very banks that caused the economic crash that caused homeowners to lose their jobs and are the very banks hold worthless derivatives on their books and are being bailed out by...yep, you guessed it, TAXES paid by Americans, some of whom are losing their homes.
Yet, they are allowed to get away with it.

3. I bet they also are not buying cars or other major purchases |
|
It's almost as if all of these things are related somehow.

10. You have vet clinics closing down? Wow, first I've heard of that |
|
I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but it seems like a different point of measure for something like that to happen than if was a retail type business.

5. No breaking news bells and whistles. Just a genuine surprise that |
|
people who've lost their jobs due to the economic crash are now losing their homes to foreclosure, presented as news - as if they were hearing it for the first time.
