Nope. Canada dislikes banking parasites as much as the rest of the world.

Iceland hates them even more. During the economic collapse, they jailed the bankers and bailed out the people.

That's customer service, which I think is slightly different than what people think of when 'banker' comes to mind. I personally think of the managers and higher.

Suuuuree. Blame the bankers. Your home mortgage, car loan, credit card debt, student loan, furniture loan, and business loan have NOTHING to do with creating the banking industry.

Nah, it was the selling and reselling of mortgages, the credit default swaps, numerous other investment schemes that were so complicated that few, if any understood... schemes that make you wonder how it was legal that caused the market collapse.

Sure. MBS didnt help. But debt is at the heart of it all. Stop wishing to live beyond your means and bankers are powerless. Pay cash.

murt speaks wisdom. Should be common sense, but living within your means is so unpopular these days that we have to try to make our own financial irresponsibility someone else's fault.

Very true, the attempt to live beyond one's means made the market collapse all the worse, as many had that much more to lose.

How is this "America bashing"? It's showing Americans to be better informed politically than Canadians.

yes, you're right, but I get the feeling it's saying that American banks aren't as good as Canada's. which is not necessarily true. but, yes, you're right.

"I took a 'cash out refi,' and used the home equity money to buy an Escalade and go on an expensive vacation, but now I need the government to bail me out because the greedy bankers caused me to have a mortgage that is more than my home is worth."
