ROBERT RUBIN AS AN EXAMPLE WAS A MAJOR PLAYER IN THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION, ALONG WITH CISNAROIS AND BARNEY FRANKS PLUS OTHERS PUSHING FOR LOOSEING THE CREDIT GUIDELINES, THUS MAKING MORE PEOPLE ELGIBLE TO BUY A HOUSE THEY COULDN'T AFFORD. NOW WE WANT TO HELP THOSE PEOPLE KEEP THEIR HOUSE THRU VARIOUS ACTIONS FINANCED BY THE TAXPAYERS. I JUST READ IN THE PAPER FINANCIAL SECTION THAT MORE THAN 50% OF THE PEOPLE THAT HAD THEIR MORTAGES AJUSTED ARE ALREADY IN TROUBLE AGAIN IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS. I GUESS THE OTHER ISSUE THAT I CAN'T HARDLY WAIT FOR IS GUARANTEED INSURANCE FROM OBAMA. WHAT HE REALLY MEANS IS WE WILL CHARGE MORE FOR INSURANCE FOR THOSE THAT CURRENTLY HAVE IT SO WE CAN GIVE MORE TO THE PEOPLE THAT WOULD SOONER HAVE DESIGNER CLOTHES, RINGS, GOLD JEWELRY, TEC. THAN USE THAT MONEY TO BUY INSURANCE. WITH ALL THE MULTI MILLIONAIRES GETTING RICHER, WHILE OBVIOUSLY MAKING MAJOR MISTAKES, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO PRECLUDE IT ALL FROM HAPPENING AGAIN.
