JPMorgan Chase Gets $14 Billion Per Year In Government Subsidy
At least some of the billions of dollars that JPMorgan Chase lost gambling on credit derivatives once belonged to you.
Outraged by Merkley’s impunity, Dimon roared that his bank only took the government’s lousy bailout money and only borrowed at rock-bottom interest rates from the Federal Reserve because the government insisted that it do so, for the sake of appearances and the good of the country. And JPMorgan is the country’s greatest hero, so it had no choice but to accept all of this free money the government was handing out. It certainly did not need it.

Ex-loan officer claims Wells Fargo targeted black communities for shoddy loans
For nearly a decade, Beth Jacobson lived inside the vast machinery of subprime mortgages that shook the nation’s economy.
In sworn court testimony, she describes watching loan officers comb through heavily black areas such as Baltimore and Prince George’s County, forging relationships with churches and community groups to sell them shoddy loans. She says she processed homeowners with sterling credit ratings for higher interest rates than they needed to pay.

One Nation Under Debt With Endless Debt Slavery For All
Our entire economy is now based on debt. We are told that we have to go into debt for everything.
Debt is a "soft" form of slavery. In America today, it is not legal to bind people up with chains and force them to work for you, but that doesn't mean that there are not millions upon millions of slaves in this country. When you borrow money, you willingly become a servant to the lender. Sadly, there are millions of Americans that will spend the rest of their lives working to pay off their debts but they will never escape the endless debt slavery that they have gotten themselves into. When you add up all forms of debt in the United States at this point, it comes to more than 54 trillion dollars. That is more than $178,000 for every man, woman and child in America. We truly are one nation under debt, and we have created the biggest debt bubble in the history of the planet. Unfortunately, all debt bubbles eventually burst, and when this one bursts the consequences are going to be unlike anything ever seen before.
