Clinton was in politics. Clinton wanted votes from
blacks and others who were bad credit risks so he leaned on banks, forcing them
to give easy credit, mortgage loans to buy houses that were unlikely to be
repaid. He bought popularity with other people's money. He bought votes.
Chickens came home to roost later, after he left office. See something on the
results at
Financial Crisis 2008. It began in 2008.
It is far from finished. In fact he is not the only guilty party. Politicians
wanting votes are just one more lot.
Wall Street was there
with its snouts in the trough, soaking up the billions.
It really was billions. Their greed is unlimited
