Yes it did.
I remember that, too. I paid $1.25 for a gallon of gas way back in the 80's, then it dropped to half that for a very long time. You're right that Carter was a terrible president, too.
Where is personal responsibility anyway? These bad loans are not all the fault of unscrupulous bankers. We were told several times that we bought houses that we could qualify for X amt of loan dollars. We refused, knowing that payment would strap our budget, no matter what they were willing to give us. WE made the decision to sign. WE paid the mortgages every month, not the banker. WE were the ones ultimately responsible for our finances. Sure, not every borrower is the brightest bulb in the pkg, but that still doesn't change the fact that they didnt do their own simple math to figure if they could really afford that pymt.
Although I think it's quite a combo of many spiraling sources............I DO agree with you.
I think PPL really do know what they are worth.........but they just WANT.
It really has to end.
There are just so many who are completely left out.
WE need to see this.........and the error of our ways........regardless of what our BANKERS, POLITICIANS or WHOEVER tell us.
To Thine own self be true.
Good Point.
