the hippies must wake up late. When I was driving through there at 6:45 there were no hippies.

5/9/2012 11:06:50 AM

hahah that picture totally looks like something the protesters would put out

upper office guy staring down on the plebeian hordes

"Housing for people not profits."

Idiots.

5/9/2012 11:36:35 AM

Thats actually a really interesting notion. Housing is a basic necessity and something everyone wants. There is plenty available for everyone to have. Why not make it some sort of government controled thing? Its not like the government would mess it up. They just collect huge taxes on it and people sign up through them.

5/9/2012 11:43:52 AM

So what do these people want? To not have to pay mortgages on homes they can't afford?

5/9/2012 11:48:43 AM

There are millions of homeless people.

There are millions of peopless homes.

Is it really that hard to make the most logical connection?

Banks can't make it because there is no potential for profit so they rather see kids on the street than make a profitless deal. This is why banks must go.

5/9/2012 11:59:20 AM

islamic loans for all!!!

5/9/2012 12:00:15 PM

yes, obviously.

5/9/2012 12:00:26 PM

whoa....ADD TO MY TOPICS

5/9/2012 12:02:28 PM

ironically, this is taking place when BoA is announcing loan forgiveness for many underwater homeowners.

wonder if they will protest when they realize the forgiven amount is counted as income for tax purposes

5/9/2012 12:02:33 PM

The real question, is who will they protest?

What's funny is my software company deals with customer experience. Aka we tell the bank how to treat customers better.

All houses are different. Some are better built, some are bigger, some are in better locations. They all have different values.

Hopefully, you're trolling. With shit like "Its not like the government would mess it up"....yeah, you're trolling.

1) Homes require maintenance. So putting people in homes who don't have jobs is only going to further deteriorate the homes.

2) Some people do have jobs, work really REALLY hard, and make payments that take upto 75% of their paycheck just to keep their home. It wouldn't really be fair to give someone a free house when you have someone who paid for theirs next door.

Makes sense to me. I wouldn't want to lose profits either because someone can't make their payments on time. Not my fault.

5/9/2012 1:00:41 PM

This isn't a "bank-existing" problem, this is a "government problem, which is owned by the banks," problem.

Had to walk through all that and go through a different entrance.

I kind of want to drum battle that chick with the snare.
