Let Them Burn
This just gets my goat. Seriously, fuck these financial institutions. I swear if we bail out one more of these fuckers I'm hitting the streets with pitchforks and torches. MSNBC reports:
In marketing, advertising and testimony before Congress, Countrywide Home Loans has said repeatedly that it is working hard to modify the mortgages of financially strapped borrowers caught up in the subprime meltdown. But in a New Hampshire court, attorneys for the lending giant are singing a different tune, describing such assurances as “mere commercial puffery.”
We give them money and they say "Why sure, we'll make all kinds of allowances for distraught and in trouble homeowners to modify their loans". And then in court they admit, "Well, that was just marketing bullshit, we're not modifying a damn thing."
Seriously? I love the smell of 21st century Class Warfare in the morning.
UPDATE Jan 16: OK, so let me get this straight regarding Bank of America. The company already got money from the Government, then what these Masters of the Universe, these Financial Genius Wizards do, you see, is go and buy up companies with vast amounts of toxic garbage on their books - Merill and Countrywide. And now they need more money because that was obviously a bad decision. No shit. I'm speechless. We give these fuckers money, good real American tax payer dollars, which they sink into more failing schemes without pause and then they come back demanding more money? Burn them down.

Damn man, I was just relaying almost identical thoughts to my friend on IM when I heard that Bank of America was back with it's hand out. Jesus Christ, I thought those $3 ATM surcharges were bad, now I'm paying them even though I avoid BofA like the plague.
