Yes. No difference between safety regulations and meaningless, protect-people-from-themselves, bread-and-circus commercial regulations. :rolleyes:

The only thing missing now would be bigger reimbursements for people with lower credit scores.

I like the reimbursements for the people of CA. It may bankrupt the whole State, but wealthy white folks will feel good about themselves. And then unfortunately move to another State and screw that one up as well. Exception being Dean Cain and Scott Baio, they are welcome in all common sense States.

2008 was caused by too much gov interference. We shouldn't have bailed anyone out.

But I guess some people need daddy gov to govern them harder.

how exactly did too much regulation cause the mortgage crisis of 2008-09? Please be specific

Think he's referring to the free cash and bailouts that screwed things up. Kind of like today's debacle. Remember back then $700 billion was an astronomical amount, now Joe ****es that in a morning.

I’m tired of apologizing to pax for preventable poor performance, it’s embarrassing.

Why would you ever apologize to pax? Instead, tell them they should send their frustrations to your airline’s social media pages and the direct emails of your Board of Directors. Have them CC the various clickbait faux-outrage “news” sources while you’re at it.

Google the Community Reinvestment Act. That will be as specific or as general as you like.

hmmm, after very basic research it shows that only 6 % of the loans fall into that category, i am happy to link the articles.

Just be careful of mindlessly falling into political traps.

if only 6% of the loans that qualified under the cri are involved in the mortgage crisis, how is that the lead cause?
