			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 align="center">A Quote To Remember</h1>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Dear Reader and Friend,</p>
<p>This quote comes from Gerry Spence, in his book <i>&ldquo;How To Argue And Win Every Time&rdquo;</i></p>
<p>It is <b>Extremely Important</b> to keep in mind&#8230; in my opinion. You my friend are free to do with it what you will. But I think it will be best to at least consider it and think about what it says, and you will see lot&rsquo;s of people in authority&rsquo;s motivations.</p>
<blockquote>
<p><i>&ldquo;And what is the function of the law in all this?</p>
<p>Even the law is <b>not</b> designed to deliver justice. The law is <b>not</b> ethical.</p>
<p>Instead, <u>law</u> <u>becomes</u> <u>the</u> <u>means</u> <u>by</u> <u>which</u> <u>those</u> <u>in</u> <u>power</u>, justly or unjustly, <u>retain</u> <u>power.</u></p>
<p>Law preserves power &mdash; money power. Law will nearly always dignify a past evil as precedent rather than create justice by changing an unjust law.&rdquo;</i></p>
</blockquote>
<h3 align="center">The Most Important</h3>
<p>What I saw as most important are these thoughts&#8230;</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>the law is <b>not</b> designed to deliver justice.</li>
<li><u>law</u> <u>becomes</u> <u>the</u> <u>means</u> <u>by</u> <u>which</u> <u>those</u> <u>in</u> <u>power</u> <u>retain</u> <u>power.</u></li>
<li>Law preserves power (for those in power).</li>
</ul>
<h3 align="center">Think About That</h3>
<p>Think about that the next time you see some politician throwing money to some special interest group.</p>
<p>Think about that the next time you see some politician claiming they &ldquo;are for the people&rdquo;</p>
<p>Think about that the next time you see some politician calling them selves or being tagged as a &ldquo;Populist&rdquo;</p>
<p>Think about that the next time you see some politician looking for, creating, and blaming a scape goat that is in the minority (numbers wise).</p>
<p>Think about that the next time you see anyone in power demonizing those who are lesser in number than the group the one in power represents.</p>
<h3 align="center">That Explains It</h3>
<p>That explains why politicians want to &ldquo;Soak the rich&rdquo;&#8230; There are more who do not believe the are rich, than those who believe they are rich.</p>
<p>That explains why the mortgage crisis has reared it&rsquo;s ugly head. Politicians appealing to those more likely to vote them into power and keep them there were the beneficiaries.</p>
<p>&rdquo;Why it&rsquo;s prejudice&#8230; prejudice I tell you! That&rsquo;s the reason someone with no job, no income, who has defaulted on <u>every</u> <u>single</u> <u>obligation</u> is not getting a mortgage. We in congress must do something about this grave injustice&#8230; Let&rsquo;s force the bankers to give the people who can not afford it a mortgage.&ldquo;</p>
<p>And that&rsquo;s what happened.</p>
<p>I strongly believe, if someone lives up to the three legged stool for a loan they deserve to get one.</p>
<p><b>And Just What Are The THREE Legs?</b></p>
<ul type="1">
<li>The Ability To Pay It Back</li>
<li>The Will to Pay It Back</li>
<li>The Track Record of Paying It Back</li>
<p>In my book, meet those three criteria and you should get a loan.</p>
<p>But now the politicians are blaming the mortgage crisis not on policies they forced down bankers throats&#8230; not at all. They are blaming the mortgage meltdown on the &ldquo;Greedy bankers&rdquo; you know, the ones who forced mortgages on those unsuspecting people who could not afford them.</p>
<p>And why do they scape goat the bankers? There are more people who have a mortgage than there are bankers.</p>
<p>The Law Is NOT Designed To Deliver Justice&#8230; It&rsquo;s There To Keep Those In Power&#8230; In Power. Nothing more, nothing less.</p>
