7. If we had bailed-out homeowners in the 2008 crash

Instead of the filthy rich bankers, we would have far fewer homeless. Around here in the boondocks, there are many abandoned houses that once housed many middle income families and oly house rats and bats now

But the houses were left to rot and fall apart after the bankers forced out the families. Now, only the land is worth anything and the banks never made anything by forcing the families out into the streets.

It makes no sense.
