Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for January 02, 2010

Now Now The nice banker assured my ex-neighbor she could afford the mortgage on one income.

Cabrobst: no, he’s a Democrat back in his district after voting for the latest, hugely unpopular big-government scheme you may have heard about.

Must be dingey Hairy.

At least the politicians in this cartoon are dressing realistically

Right Lewreader, The banking problem in broad terms, on two fronts.

1.The government pressure for banking institutions to extend loan terms for subprime ‘risk’. 2.Those very same banks selling at first, ARMs with those nice looow payments, at least to start …then next came the ‘interest only’ loans, buy soooo much more house for the same amount of money! Of course the banker can answer the question asked, “but I will have no equity…right?” with….(with a wink) “have you ever heard of house prices going down?” Simplification? Of course, but the essence of what has gone on. All the best this New Year Lew.
