Bailout Recipients Being Sued By Fed?

0 CommentsWritten by Chuck MurphyFiled Under: Credit News

Talk about getting bit by the hand that feeds you!! What a novel idea! Force a bank to buy two companies to help them survive… give them billions of dollars to bail them out… and now, years later, sue them for an amount almost equal to what the bailout was for… AFTER they have pretty much paid you back!! It’s getting really hard to figure out who the “bad guy” is in this story. (Thanks to Frank & Brian of TBWS)

Let me know what you think about all of this.

As the regulators continue to try to “fix” what they think is broken, does anyone find it as interesting as I do, that the large majority of legislation affects the mortgage broker negatively and affects the banker in virtually no way, what so ever?

Oh… and the “Single Lady” segment is pretty funny!  Frank and Brian… you guys make pretty good “lounge lizards”
