I did it again!!

I just got a call from the L.A. Times. Tomorrow, they're probably going to print a letter to the editor on mine regarding the mortgage crisis.

I don't have a copy on this computer, but basically I'm complaining about the Senate voting down a provision which would let bankruptcy judges reduce interest rates on residences to a reasonable level while the Senate still is considering a provision give subsidies to people snapping up the foreclosed homes.

Those poor billionaires! Zkrib, how could you?





Zkrib is a crusader for the little guy. (Us)

You know that this is just another example of the Man screwing you, right? They actually *pay* people to write most of their articles, but here you are going and doing their work for them, and not receiving remuneration for your efforts...

My father used to write letters to newspapers and they printed most of them. He is somewhat of a minor celebrity in some parts.

Good for you Z.

I remember back when Jerry Brown was running for the Democratic nominations. He beat Carter is something like six primaries in a row. One reporter then asked Brown, "You do know your supporters are just out to stop Carter from getting the nomination? They're using you."

To which Brown replied, "You might think about who is using who."

Zkribb here is using the press of a $2.8-billion newspaper to spread his thoughts around the world.

Congrats.

Here's today's letter:

The Senate rejected an amendment that would have empowered bankruptcy judges to reduce mortgage payments* for homeowners facing foreclosure. The Senate has rejected the most powerful tool available to halt the avalanche of foreclosures. It has turned its back on American families in their darkest hours. Instead the Senate is preparing to provide billions of dollars in tax breaks and subsidies to buyers of foreclosed properties, ensuring maximum revenues to the predatory lenders that caused this crisis.

Is it any wonder that Congress' approval ratings continue to plummet?
