re: #9 Dark_Falcon

You can’t expect hated people to lead the way in a bad economic climate. Especially when you have protesters demanding changes as well. Moreover, they still don’t know if the housing market has stabilized.

So the banks may have cash on hand, but their risk exposure is often too high to lend much of it out. That cash is being held in reserve until the risks are reduced.

It almost sounds like you’re saying they ‘can’t lead’ because people have hurt their feelings.
