When I listen to our governments I am starting to feel that I have somehow slipped into the film Men in Black.  How else are we supposed to explain that we are now expected to completely forget that it was the banks who created, and are now profiting from, the global catastrophe of debts and […]

Whenever you disagree with accepted wisdom and just can’t be made to fall in to line with the plans of the established experts, eventually people get exasperated with you and say, “Yeah, well what’s your idea then?

Something extremely serious is going to have to happen and rather soon to avert an all out crisis in the U.S. mortgage industry.
