god help me I have read a million things more insane and less basic...example is the article on the HOLC...the entire position is an insane position with useless connections to a publisher who is doing self promoting...my intention is to do full and complete links to the historical background of the great depression and how this country got past it by working hard... | |||

my reaction had less to do with what was done to my work and really just an over reaction to something I was on the editors space..something about being a grammer-nazi...before there was a jewish holocaust, hitler order the murder/starvation of 500000 helenes in retaliation for having revolted and caused Barbarossa to be moved from march 15 to june 22 causing the loss of the war...some of them were my relatives, so anything that says nazi on it usually gets me going in the wrong way...I will clean up the work, but I really dont see any connection to those two sites and the crash...one wants to blame it on poor people(the community reinvestment act) and the other one wants to blame it on everything being too expensive...neither of which has anything to do with facts that lead to how and why it happened...these are just cnn/usa today versions laying out the dead bodies...not who shot the bullets or why...the starting point on both are so far off as to be impossible to contribute anything inside that noise...there is no insight into how basel 2 rules came together with fas157 to create a tidal wave...pedestrian argument right out of Karl Roves handbook, Global Financial crisis blames the poor...don't quite see how I want to be contributing to a sight that is openly racist...long long ago in a galaxy far far away(ok chicago), I fought hard to make sure the community reinvestment act was enforced...so i know the code words for the closet liberal racists of the world...and the other site, seems to want to focus on...oh golly gee, this world is so expensive...none of it is of much value...no mention of the german banks that had handed out letters of credit and had to be bailed out last year by the german government in the beginning of this mess last year...no mention of the freeze up of financial markets on august 7, 2007 the day after american home mortgage filed bankruptcy...real time usefull facts that might give some insight...cleaning up those other sites...alot of useless stats...with no usefull links...just stale...so I want to thank you for showing me how to find what I was working on, but I don't see any connection with those sites you want me to contribute to and what has actually happened...and there is no way to connect those two sites...they each have an agenda and there is no way to connect those two themes into one space... <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 07:20, 4 November 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
