benkay: mircea_popescu: wouldn't expect him to bend over for a reaming in public from someone who's been on record for years screaming about the ease of scamming noobs in the coinspace

jborkl: mp, about to hit yourself in the head witha hammer?
Diablo-D3: lol mircea_popescu is a troll
Diablo-D3: benkay: if you believe that, you will never have power.
mircea_popescu: probably should have ignored the guy much earlier, in retrospect.
benkay: Diablo-D3: power is acquired by force. that is the only rule.
mircea_popescu: ok that's the end of that.
mircea_popescu: dude i really wish we have a two week level field, so we just see exactly what happens
Diablo-D3: so until the rich decide to play by the same rules as everyone else, they should be severely limited in the economy
benkay: Diablo-D3: at the bankers behest.
benkay: Diablo-D3: the highest power in the land is the government, which is fucking the idiots.
Diablo-D3: benkay: yes, and its illegal, by law (the highest power of the land) to use said power

mircea_popescu: what's wrong with begging me to let him live in my garage ?
mircea_popescu: who told joe blow to sign on the dotted line for a 5mn house ?
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: yes, but they signed forms that said one thing but meant another
benkay: Diablo-D3: and the bank operators are vastly more wealthy than they were before.
mircea_popescu: dude! nobody forced all the idiots to sign the forms.
dub: the problem with the US is the banks have no incentive to lend to people capable of servicing the loans
Diablo-D3: its worth FAR less than what the loan was for (mainly because major banks conspired to jack up the housing market) and now they cant sell it to anyone
benkay: Diablo-D3: except that money is now securely in the hands of far smarter humans.
mircea_popescu: much like all the money asicminer ppl thought they had.
Diablo-D3: even if they get the house back, the house is worthless
Diablo-D3: they loaned money to people and now the money is gone forever
Namworld: Hmm, maybe contracts are more obscure in the US
Diablo-D3: benkay: idiots yes, but I think the banks are the ones that are the idiots
Diablo-D3: Namworld: I dunno, Ive read through contracts that Ive had to double check with law dictionaries and case law just to make usre it said what I thought it said
dub: while you're there you have them asses any contracts as well as the title and assoc documents
benkay: Diablo-D3: news to me.
benkay: Diablo-D3: this isn't already a nation of idiots who've taken on too much debt without the revenues to make payments?
mircea_popescu: i think Diablo-D3 should be illegal.
Namworld: Contracts with consumers aren't chinese either. They're just long and boring. Since when are contracts gibberish? You can still understand what the contract says.
mircea_popescu: and thinking isn't ?
dub: in dubistan you CANT transfer property title without a lawyer, they do the transfery bits
Diablo-D3: benkay: then the entire US economy crashes because now we have a bunch of houses no one can live in
mircea_popescu: Diablo-D3 how come they have sex, while sex isn't mandatory ?
Diablo-D3: its not HARD to educate people in legal basics, it'd be 3 or 4 year long classes during their high school year
mircea_popescu: what in the love of fuck.
benkay: Diablo-D3: naw. let property ownership fall back to those with the capital to pay for lawyers, man.
mircea_popescu: and if you need a dentist just to fix your teeth the system has also failed ?
Diablo-D3: dub: yes, but if you need a lawyer just to buy a house, the system has failed
dub: is this not what lawyers are for?
benkay: Diablo-D3: ignoring the fact that most people will never be able to understand these obligations.
mircea_popescu: it's a wonder they get laid, seeing how that's not mandatory either.
mircea_popescu: right. the reason people aren't educating themselves is because the govt isn't making it mandatory.
Diablo-D3: but most people dont know how to read contracts because the government refuses to make the education for such manditory
Namworld: Well then the buyer's fault. Read contracts in full.
Namworld: Is there a clause in the contract about that?
Diablo-D3: Namworld: because they're evil corrupt assholes
Namworld: They do that? What the heck for?
Diablo-D3: instead of on the schedule you agreed to when you signed the loan
Diablo-D3: if your house goes down in value, the bank DEMANDS you pay the difference NOW
Diablo-D3: Namworld: thats not the problem
Diablo-D3: [06:24:54] <Namworld> If they couldn't afford it they should have just not bought the damn fucking house. When you take a decision, deal with the consequences.
mircea_popescu: basically the entire us is this rat nest of speculators trying to steal shit from each other.
benkay: Diablo-D3: your solution obviously is to make private securitized debts illegal.
dub: Namworld: it would help to reduce easy access to shitty finance
Diablo-D3: I do not do business with those banks, nor do I have any loans, so why am _I_ paying for their mistakes
Diablo-D3: benkay: they just steal money from everyone else using congress
benkay: Diablo-D3: naw, they just have a lock on the government operators.
Namworld: If they couldn't afford it they should have just not bought the damn fucking house. When you take a decision, deal with the consequences.
Diablo-D3: benkay: because the lenders refuse to default.
Diablo-D3: mircea_popescu: yes, and 5 years ago I was telling them to stop inflating the housing market
Diablo-D3: benkay: then most people simply cant get loans.
mircea_popescu: they're tghe same schmucks that were swarming reddit five years ago ranting about how rich they are being made by their speculative wisdom
mircea_popescu: benkay or trying to at anuy rate.
mircea_popescu: i wonder how the us political landscape would look if ugly women were illegal.
benkay: that city is a rats nest of idiot property speculators who are using the local gov't to escape from the terms of their debts
mircea_popescu: (on the grounds of being legally mentally inept)
benkay: Diablo-D3: so you want me to be unable to leverage my assets.
mircea_popescu: seeing how the major distinguishing feature of the 1900s nigger was his inability to take on a loan.
mircea_popescu: so basically declare anyone in the us a nigger.
Diablo-D3: what companies do with other companies, well, thats their business
benkay: Diablo-D3: plan to outlaw all securitized loans now?
mircea_popescu: and nobody is in anuy position to "take away" anything.
Diablo-D3: I think if someone abuses a privilege, that privilege should be taken away from them
mircea_popescu: you basically think anything should be made illegal by how the wind blows.
Diablo-D3: I think private mortgages should be made illegal anyhow
mircea_popescu: this is the definition of graft.
mircea_popescu: basically the city wants to give some other people's money to some douches they're friends with
mircea_popescu: If the bank agrees, the city and the company then obtain the loan at $150,000. Richmond and the company then offer the homeowner a new loan of $190,000, which, if accepted, lowers the monthly payments and improves the owners' chances of staying.
mircea_popescu: Richmond, working with San Francisco-based Mortgage Resolution Partners, offers $150,000 to buy a $300,000 bank loan on a house that is now worth $200,000 and is in danger of foreclosure.
