      They definitely don't work by giving out predatory loans selling them under false pretenses and then after the sale betting against those loans then laughing all the way to the bank..this crap has been happening since 1929. Back then when it was brand new they can say mistakes were made but today it's nothing but fraud. They still pull shenanigans to this day.

    On the question of how they could have better communicated what was needed during that time - I’m not sure there was anything they could have done better. If they’d have said “we have to do this or you won’t be able to withdraw cash from the ATM tomorrow” or “we have to do this or your employer won’t be able to pay you”, then the financial system would have taken an even bigger hit, markets would have tumbled, smaller banks would have gone under and millions more would have lost their jobs. Best they just do what they did and kind of take the blame so to speak. Bear Stearns and JP Morgan for example - the public hated it, but it had to be done. AIG - the public hated it, but they had to be saved. Btw - Barclays and Lehmann - we still can’t seem to admit that deal couldn’t just “happen”. It had to be given the all clear by the Bank of England and UK Treasury who regulate Barclays. That took time. But it did happen eventually. Lehmann didn’t fail because of the Brits. They failed because Fuld was useless negotiating with everyone else and Barclays were their last option.

    Funny thing, everybody underestimates the incredible feat these men pulled off, especially Paulson. Also everyone seems to have forgotten that we were all complacent and greedy, taking out massive loans on multiple houses we knew we couldn't afford. Yeah you can blame the bankers for not disclosing the risks, some even lied but also some were ignorant/unaware of what was truly going on. Also what happened to personal responsibility for your own actions? - That applies to everybody.

      You do understand that it was paid with tax payers money right? The issue it not really the bailed out...the issue is why only the bankers were bailed out and not the borrowers? And if you are talking about ressposability...shouldn't the banks be held accountable for their actions or were only the borrowers the suffer the consecuenses? And finally...were there any contingencies against the banks to the bail out for the tax payers who actually bailed them out? I don't recall... you so you are missing those quite a few important facts. You should study a bit more before believing everything you hear on the media...🤣

      @@davec2611 and what's even more problematic is that Henry Paulson was the CEO of Goldman Sachs he specifically bought the thrash CDO's, MBS's, etc. He either knew what was going to happen and didn't care or was really dumb and didn't know and I mean that's not really possible. he is the reason why the 2008 crisis happened he himself asked Congress to deregulate the derivatives market. watch the inside job documentary yeah they saved the AıG and it would have been a disaster if they didn't but there's no way he didn't know AIG was going to fail his company insured their crappy assets from aig and then insured their insurance from AIG because they knew AIG was going to fail.

      You had massive loans on multiple homes? I had one loan on a modest home. The banks got massive amounts of money from the treasury and the federal reserve, and when the economy took away my ability to keep up with my mortgage, they took my home.
      Let's just recap: the banks f*** the economy. Because of that, I couldn't earn a living.
      The banks took my house. AND they f***ed up my credit rating so I couldn't get another.
      I'm not sure how I was irresponsible. But it's always easy to blame the victim.

    The personal magnitude of the Great Recession, I thought, was brought about by the divorce I was going through. Then, as a real estate broker at the time, I sat on the porch with many a short sale or foreclosure client and cried w/ them. The banks had NO idea how to handle short sale paperwork - there wasn't any. Banks were closing. People were unemployed, all of the sudden - even stalwart companies, like Lehman Bros. folded. Fast forward to an appraisal class I took in 2018, talking about Mr. Paulson and others, showing football stadiums, across the nation - the globe, filled with people losing their homes, the devalued dollar...these men played a critical role in something economically unfathomable...to this day.

      i think the rating agencies signed off on the investment grade for CDO etc. Without this the 2007 crisis could not have happen. The ratings agencies had no one investigating their practices in justifying the ratings they were freely giving out. They didn't want to challenge their customers (originators of CDOs motivated by far of losing business to competing rating agencies. System was flawed.

Another thing to keep in mind is in hindsight, WE now have the LUXURY of fact, they were dealing with countless unknowns and probabilities, again, facts were a non-existent luxury during this. I absolutely agree with you and your anger, COMPLETELY, I too have it, but I have read an extensive amount about this crisis and the totality of the problems, all of the unknowns and I think there was nothing else they could have done based on the speed in which they HAD to be done to fix the financial system. With all that said, I do wish more people went to a REAL prison over this.

      Elaborate .... what do you mean by "screw up " you do realise these three essentially rescued the financial system ? None of them worked for an investment bank at the time. Also what about the role of main street ? They actually gave out the sub prime mortgages , wall street simply securitized it , what about the ratings agencies ? What about personal responsibility for taking out mortgages you can't afford ? To blame these three strikes me as simplistic unless I'm missing something?
