Pro, the home foreclosure crisis is due to a bubble created by Greenspan and Clinton, to replace the dot-com bubble that burst, and was encouraged to continue under Bush (although Republicans in the House pushed for stricter lending standards, and were outnumbered by Democrat partisan corruption enablers like Maxine Waters and Barney Frank).
It was Democrats who pushed for easy lending for unqualified buyers, who being unqualified, later defaulted. Or just chose to skip on their morgtages when they turned upside down (i.e., the home value depreciated to the point that the mortgage loan was higher than the value of the home).

It is Obama who is allowing unemployment to skyrocket, by making every liberal-spending-wet-dream a priority over our economy, making employers --both large and small businesses, not wall street-- afraid to hire because of the smothering and costly new regulations (and further regulations pushed for) that Obama has initiated.

The bankers did the responsible thing by holding onto the bailout money and stabilizing their industry, rather than continue to make bad loans to unqualified buyers. And kudos to the banking industry for having the backbone to do the responsible thing, even with Obama and the liberal media putting a gun to their heads. And mob-mentality leftists class-warfare thugs like ACORN and SEIU picketing them to continue the same dangerous easy-lending practices.

Dipshits like you are the cause of the collapse, Pro, for forcing banks to make bad loans or be called "racist" or "the greedy rich" if they didn't lend money to unqualified buyers who should never have been given cash.
Those trillions in unrepaid loans are what collapsed the system, not "greed".
Trillions in loans that defied common-sense lending practices, pushed in the name of liberal social engineering.
