The Community Reinvestment Act accounts for only a few percent of the bad subprime loans in this country. The overwhelming majority of the bad subprime loans were made by investment banks and mortgage lenders who were not under the umbrella of CRA. Only 1 of the top 25 subprime lenders in this country are regulated under the CRA.

What you posted was a lie. It shows you have zero understanding of how the financial system works. Ask a broker one day how this works before you continue to make a fool of yourself on issues.
