I can not believe in the 34 subsequent posts no one mentions it. It is jaw dropping even to readers of this thread...It is hard for me to comprehend the magnitude of corruption she claims exists. Has her work been commented on here before?


I just started reading her comments on the Solari web site. It's incredible stuff. It's so overwhelming I decided to take a break. I'll get back to it after breakfast.

She does incredible work. There are a few people here (is it gregor or bart? I can't remember.) who have talked about her a lot.

A lot of her work has been commented on (contemporaneously). And there's no doubt there's been tremendous amounts of fraud during the housing bubble, under the "wink and nod" lack of enforcement by governmental agencies (particularly state enforcement agencies in bubble areas and also the FBI). As usual, the crooks only get caught after the bubble implodes, same as with the internet bubble. Not much of a deterrent when it happens in that sequence.

It's hard to know how much of what she says is actually reportable and can be backed up. I'm sure much of the gist is true but there is a kind of rambling overstated quality to it that makes me wonder if she has her own axes to grind. Esp. as a journalist I find it unlikely that staff journalists would be working on stories with the approval of their editors that were at the last minute killed etc. It's possible of course.
