I don't want a depression anymore than anyone else, but somewhere, sometime, we have to be accountable for poor choices, both on the individual level and on a corporate one.
You nailed it. I feared if they passed this because it would send a strong signal that irresponsibility is okay. Not only will we lose our houses over corporate greed, but we will then PAY THEM for their mistakes.

So we lose our houses and whatever else we have left? WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING?!
