I'm with you on the having not an iota of sympathy for the financers. And as you point out its the people at the lower end of the food chainer who will bear the biggest brunt.
They have been wreckless and greedy. Their homes should be confiscated and the proceeds of the sale go to government agencies or charities who help the needy and homeless.
I am sick of the garbage that the media spiels out about how tragic it is for them.
