    If you're liable if you finance something, 1) Dakota will just cut costs - afterall, Wells is forced to pay for catastrophies. Where does it end? Wells would then be responsible for unlimited homeowner negligence? 2) cost to borrow anything would skyrocket - financial institutions would and pretty much must pass on the costs. When posters on a message board can poke holes in ideas...they're not well thought out.
    Well, you go back to Joe Biden and get down with your bad self. Me, I appreciate the out of the box thinking.

      Like out of the box thinking. Don't like the idea of the costs of one party's negligence forced on another party - who will then push it onto the public.

        The public is already paying it. Hello.

          I'm not sure there's a practical application behind what people perceive she's arguing, but more importantly I'm not sure she's literally suggesting there be one. More so she's hoping to initiate a dialogue when it comes to laissez faire business transactions. It's worth exploring whether or not lenders should have skin in the game when knowingly financing business adventures that adversely put the public at risk.

              Nice to have a thoughtful response. You may be reading more into her commentary then there is...but lets say for a minute that's true. I don't think it changes the broader point. Why hold just lenders accountable? What about product suppliers? What about raw material providers? What about accountants? What about every single organization that chooses to work with said company? What is the real reason that we single out loans vis a vis any other enabling product or service?

              I don't think so. Let's just have full government oversight to make sure there isn't undue risk...and then put full liability on those responsible if the worst happens. Nobody else is to blame for a criminals activities.

                I don't think she's trying to single lenders out - as I said she's suggesting something is amiss and that there's too much deregulation on many fronts.

                                If mookie doesn’t pay the mortgage, the bank (lender) takes ownership.
