Companies who gave bad loans would have been fucked. Instead, they made a killing and we were fucked. Was there a way to save our home values while making the mortgage industry pay the piper? Not sure. I would rather have seen a few companies reap what they had sown rather than middle class Americans getting the shaft.
People who live off the government are no better/no worse than they were before. In fact, they had some benefits extended/increased. Working people got screwed.
At some point, working people need to fight back. If every single working person failed to file taxes next year, they couldn't come after all of us and they wouldn't have any funding to do so. That's my master plan.
