Dec 1, 2008 - The roots of the crisis go back to the early 1970s when finance was "liberalized" from the constraints of the post-war period (1945-1970). These constraints were instituted by the US & UK for a reason: because it was assumed CORRECTLY that allowing governments to control capital movements & currencies would provide a basis for rapidly expanding growth in trade, which indeed happened. It's the GOLDEN AGE OF MODERN CAPITALISM. FREEING these constraints RETARD growth & development. As it has done

Dec 1, 2008 - i know fox news spews utter crap allot of the time but i must admit they are right about this issue. the dems campaigned to give minorities (who are statistically way more likely to have poor credit ratings) mortgages they wouldn't in this lifetime hope to repay. it is not racist to state this, it is a fact. as much as I hate fox news they were stating the facts here.

Dec 2, 2008 - i agree. its sad that this is prolly the ONLY actual fact fox has put out there but of course the way they even attempt to report it makes it sound like..."oh lets blame the risky brown folk" ((btw fuck fox news)) =)

Dec 2, 2008 - I can not believe that they said that and got away with it. You know if Niel Cavuto was a black guy and said lending to white people is dangerous and put tape of John Mccain up the whole time it would have been like "OH HELL NO." It would have been a big scandal

Dec 2, 2008 - Wow swim73088, take a social psychology or sociology class before you stick your foot in your mouth. Poor credit rating = no funding or loan for a house, besides read more than just your sport's section of the newspaper 62% of foreclosures are from hardworking middle-class Caucasian families.

Dec 2, 2008 - Obama has been in the Senate since 2004. That is when all this mess began. Obama is black, therefore it is his fault!!!!! The low income blacks were given these loans they knew they could not pay back. Why? Because of people like Obama. FACT!!!!!!!!! Liberals are just so stupid!!

Dec 3, 2008 - The crisis is because of losers (minorities)...who didnt pay back their home loans...housing market drops...economic meltdown....GOOD JOB YOUNG TURKS. You have just helped prove why minorities have completely fucked up America. This host is a clown by the way.
iARTillary Says:
Dec 4, 2008 - Learn to spell & not use ebonics you black shit.
Hammerlix Says:
Dec 4, 2008 - Just more of the Fox News Comedy Hour featuring that crazy clown Cavuto... No one with any sense at all believes Fox News anymore. Its just a funny channel to watch once in a while for laughs. Maybe this would have been serious journalism in South Africa 20 years ago, but now its just laughable and silly.
fearmenot22890 Says:
Dec 4, 2008 - i agree that it is the minorities, your forgeting the fact that the dems. in congress helped these people get these loans that they couldn't pay back, therfore, more blame sould be placed on the dems.
TheNextAriGold Says:
Dec 4, 2008 - First of all let's not use the "minorities" umbrella. Bad generalization. For example, Asian Americans are a minority, yet it would be a pretty foolhardy assertion to say that they are responsible for the financial meltdown.
guitarplayer3602 Says:
Dec 4, 2008 - Exactly. Democrats, and their moronic "spread the wealth" ideas have created the crisis. Minorities get money, they spend it like idiots (the reason they're poor in the first place), and then they can't pay back their home loan, thus totally fucking up the housing market. Poor people are shunned upon for a REASON. Im not rich, hell Im closer to broke...but I work hard, pay people back, and set my priorities straight.
PPQ5555666655555 Says:
Dec 4, 2008 - "Obama is a clean articulate black man." VP Joe Biden comment. I guess according to Joe, most blacks are dirty, inarticulate. I guess thats not racist. Liberals are just too stupid sometimes, I mean all of the time.

Dec 1, 2008 - the next two years you're going to see places like Irvine, CA melt down - 80% of the homes purchased the last several years in that city alone were either ARM interest only loans, or negative amoritization loans - when they reset, you're gonna see huge defaults on those loans.
