The question is whether voters in today’s election decide to draw a line and say “no more” to the forces of Chavismo . Today, Uruguay votes on how to move forward after the presidency of  Tabaré Vázquez – a leftist who moved that nation closer to Chavez and his friends, but took a more moderate approach more remeni

Wow, judges now nixing lenders’ foreclosure claims entirely in court

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

This is probably my fourth post on the tangled web woven by securitization, which puts a considerable distance between home owners and mortgagees which own a mortgage.  The issue is causing huge problems in bankruptcy and foreclosure in courts around the U.S.  This morning, Gretchen Morgenson has another good piece out describing how a judge nixed all claims by mortgagee which refused to modify a home owner’s mortgage. The debtors’ revolt is on. For decades, when troubled homeowners a

Guest Post: Did Gordon Gekko inspire Wall Street or the other way around?

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

This contribution from Daniel Berger is a letter to Michael Smerconish in response to a commentary he wrote in the Philadelphia Enquirer “ Head Strong: Did Hollywood inspire the meltdown men? ” from 10 May 2009. A shorter version of Berger’s piece appeared at New Deal 2.0 in July.
