Been there, done that

Post #377,690 by crazy 7/7/13 2:03:09 PM Reply	Been there, done that But when you do that job, please do have the decency to be at least a little ashamed of how you make your living. I coded the data warehouse the was used to analyze the people to be marketed to, enabling the largest pioneering subprime lender to make billions and tank the US economy. It only took 3 core people to make it happen. I KNEW the loans were being given to people who didn't read and/or didn't care that they had a couple of years before the balloon payments were due, and I KNEW they were being rolled up into groups and sold to unsuspecting investors. The company was gaming the system, and all hell had to break loose sooner or later. Sooner or later the world had to run out of "greater fools". http://en.wikipedia....eater_fool_theory One of those loans went to my wife (before we were together), and she lost her house in the process. I KNOW the ramifications of what I do has far reaching effects, and personally feel it. I also knew we had competitors doing the same things and it was inevitable if we didn't do it, someone else would, until the rules changed. Hey, I TOLD you I was expecting to be hated over working in the industry.

Congress / any other logical / Powerful / (also Interested) Parties? (First-hand re-plays of the ... not mere hubris+cynicism, but Nation-smashing, premeditated financial mayhem: just might catalyze the sustained attention necessary next, to overhaul the juggernaut--here and elsewhere.) We Know that 'knowing-is-not-Enough; We See the pandemic of inertia/sloth and distraction of the short-attenton folk everywhere. This will remain True until Some of these Perps Are In Jails. Surely, we. all. know. This!? What 'They' need is: A Story, to coalesce-around and add-to. YOU could tell That story. [You COULD!--via previous tales told.] .. wins 1/0 Brownie Points, too--that's a Lot, however indeterminate

Post #377,768 by crazy 7/9/13 9:44:01 AM Reply	Yes, they did We had different lists to market to, and different lists to use as suppression to not market to. The suppression lists included dead people, prisoners, etc. It also included current customers, and the current customers were divided between regular and special. The special included shitload of people that got gift loans, very low interest, great terms, etc. Many members of congress were on that list. Public knowledge. Sorry Ash, I have no special knowledge to be used to reshape the world, I merely am trying to outlast its implosion.
