>>> See, that is my point. Those loans are not the only problem.

No, they aren't. But they are the CORE problem. If you didn't have the loans, you wouldn't HAVE the other problems.

The Kos post was a bullshit attempt at misdirection, trying to get peoples eyes off the ball. The loans are the problem. Had the lenders required appropriate equity and cash flow, a market downturn would not have started a free fall.

This is characteristic in ALL markets where inappropriate leverage is employed. Nothing unusual about it.
