Yes educate the people and draw attention to the fact that this is a serious evil that needs to be put-down. Forward the cause of getting good people back in their homes.

Yes, everyone show up with a check and stop the foreclosure. LOL. Yeah, I know, that's the last thing on anyone's mind.

See, when you stop paying for your house, it doesn't make it free, it makes it just not paid for. No big surprise: When you buy something with someone else's money and flake on paying them back, you don't get to keep what you bought. Complicated, huh?

It's yours when YOU PAY FOR IT. "Good people" know that.

You're going to burn in hell for your lack of compassion!

LOL. The truly fucked up part is I know a lot you loons think that way. But it isn't compassionate to demand that someone else's loan not be repaid. How tough is that?

If you're so compassionate, rather than volunteer someone else to be "compassionate", how about if YOU show up with a CHECK. Compassion is what YOU do, not what you set someone else up to do.

Give me the money and I gladly bail out some home wowners. They deserve it more than any banker did.

At first, i was mad that this went up late, but instead i decided to blame our clock punching way of life because I am capable of critical thinking

Those foreclosures are just fencing and laundering anyway.

Collateral substantially bought by the Fed at not-market-value prices and then sold with a "loss sharing" arrangement with the big banks, a similar but smaller bone for the regional banks.

The loss sharing is a take from everyone else, absent their agreement (or awareness) and is a crock in any case.

And the banks buy back on the cheap.

So, you're actually trying to interfere with a process Don Corleone would be jealous of, let alone proud of.

Stopping foreclosure auctions is not hurting banks to the extent people might think. When property goes to the auction it is either being bought by investors at discounted price or it goes back to the bank and later being sold at open market for slightly less than usual market value which is a lot less than what was lent originally on the same property.In both cases the loss of revenue of the bank becomes apparent and when it happens a lot the price of their stocks goes down. So as twisted as it is banks like indefinite foreclosures...Who is it that really pays the price for stalled foreclosures? It is people who is looking to refinance or buy a house in New York City. Believe it or not banks would use any king of excuse and go out of their way to turn down a mortgaged applicant even if the person is well qualified. Don't take my word for it, just talk to a coworker or a friend who recently applied for a mortgage anywhere in New York City. Drive in poor neighborhoods, you will see at least 2-3 abandoned houses in every block- those are stalled foreclosures. Instead of being resold to new owners they rotting away. Singing songs is easy, doing something constructive to help people is not so why don't you people think things through before you act?

The well funded university students of yesteryear did the same thing selling peace and love and peaceful demonstration in the Vietnam years infiltrating playing for a better future for themsleves. While 18 year olds were clawing at the walls trying not to be sent to their deaths and maimings. Don't believe me go to the occubunk rooms and bring up 9/11 way to volitile. Hey I will go in there with you and watch you get love bombed and the subject continually changed by students that want funds to graduate. So they can screw you around in life. As being smarter (well more devious anyway) than you would ever be with your fellow man.

Truth is the Egyptian revolution was going on at least on year before advertised. They tried putting a Muslim minority in charge. It ain't working. So they try BSing us via Jesus and some slick writting and dissuasion that ain't working either. The REALLY UPSET people in this country and other countries were out there way before occubunk got into gear. Deal is we could not find anything on youtube could we. Or on the interest soaked media. Not in any ORGANIZED way. Now they can leed the little kiddies safetly down the hall and into a life of bond servant and debt slavery. Changing one or two laws is not going to cut it. These Occupy people are HIGHLY organized. You need to recognize that and ask yourself how and why? The how is the University system. The why is whats in it for them. A good job and a future.
.

OCCUPY TEST

GO INTO CHAT BRING UP 9/11 MASSACRE BRING UP INVASION OF IRAQ BRING UP TEARING DOWN THE WALLS

BRING UP THE OBVIOUSLY PUPPETED GOVTS. OF IRAQ, AFGANISTAN AND EGYPT. THEN BRING UP THE INCREDULOUSNESS OF A COUNTRY THAT HAS ONE BLACK SENATOR AND GOVENOR APPOINTED OF COURSE AND THE ONLY COUNTRY ON EARTH THAT HAS A MINORITY PRESIDENT IN A MAJORITY. SUCH HAS NEVER HAPPENED ON THE EARTH UNLESS ARRANGED IN SOME WAY. IN AFRICA? NOPE. EUROPE NOPE. POGO NOPE AGAIN. IT MADE HISTORY FOLKS. THE NEW WORLD RECORD FOR GULLIBILITY.

Those other countries mentioned Afganistan, Iraq are occupied physically. The occupation of this country has to do with personal debt and the debt of the country as a whole. Physical occupation and or personal indebtedness can make a real believer out of you quickly.

Bring up anything of those topics.

This is what will you get: We are peaceful We are persecuted by the bad policeman Peacefully demonstrate cause well Jesus is watching and he will mark it down on your record and get the bad people. Or hope some judge rules in your favor.

You want to see some really slick operators go into Occubunk. Watch, listen and learn from the really practicing to be devious for the future and for the debt masters of life.
