Some of it is them living beyond their means, part of that was a factor in the recession with all the subprime loans being given out. th ebanks gave out loans to people who shouldnt have gotten them, and were mislead/didnt know any better then couldnt afford to pay and then spiraled down the crapper.

If you're making a living at <insert generic retail outlet> and barely getting by then eating anything other than Ramen noodles can be considered "living beyond one's means." There are many more factors at play than just subprime/irresponsible/predatory lending, though of course the Banks do their part to ensure the large division between the rich and poor keeps growing.

Besides, it's not like all of the loans were to black people....yeesh.

Because they're too busy buying Michael Jordan body kits from china, and blinging out their Gixxer 1000's with custom seats, and blue rim tape, and aftermarket chain tensioners, to learn to actually ride..

Haha, see the difference is, these comments you or anyone else is making don't offend me in the slightest because there is a degree of truth.

WTF is your race ? I thought you were mixed 1/2 and 1/2 white and black ? Do you just claim this so you can argue and voice your opinion in every thread that comes up about it ? I almost think that if a bunch of blacks came here and started a racist thread (yes blacks can be racists too) that you'd jump right in claiming to be white...just so you could argue.

Oh and by the way I'm white and don't claim to have any Indian blood in me. I could...I really don't know but I'm definitely not claiming it. Good old German and Austrian here...as far as I know anyways.

You don't see me spewing a bunch of racist stuff on this forum either...just to be clear.

It's just funny to me that in one thread I see you're mixed and here you seem to be only BLACK so which is it ?
