[Headline]Foreclosure Crisis: 23 States Halt Foreclosure As Officials Review Bank Practices
Bank 'Robo-Signers' Apparently Reviewed Thousands of Foreclosures a Week
By MATT GUTMAN and BRADLEY BLACKBURN

As millions of Americans struggle under an epidemic of foreclosures, evidence has surfaced suggesting that some of the biggest banks are barely paying
attention before signing documents that will push people out of their homes.
Officials at some big banks now admit that so-called "robo-signers" were signing off on thousands of foreclosures a day without actually looking at
the details of any of the cases.
While the blame is being squarely placed upon robo-signers, this news evidences systemic corruption.
If it wasn't a house appraiser that pushed the value up, then it could have been
the mortgage broker to bumped your rate just a tenth of a percentage, or maybe it was
the banks packaging the collateralized debt instruments,
Now, it looks like its a robo signer to blame.
One needn't be a rocket scientist (or Keynsian Magician) to understand the systemic corruption at any level. The recent news that robo-signers are to
blame should send a shiver down your spine. Why? At the worst, a simple dereliction of duty has started a foreclosure process. A process that has
physically removed people from their homes. People who may well have been making the miracle of paying their mortgage payment.
Judges who had been flying through tens of thousands of foreclosures an hour in so-called rocket dockets may now reverse their summary
decisions, allowing homeowners to return home.
The heroic black-robed-devils may appear to be coming to the rescue of victims of the robo-signer... but not without their own complicit involvement
in the scheme.
The processes, from the appraiser through to the judge shows at the least incompetence, and at worst: systemic corruption.
If you live in the former US of A, you live in a world where a robo-signer has the power to send men with guns to physically remove you from your home
for a reason no one can put their finger upon.
