[quote:JuST A COWARD 619381:MV83MzI2NDVfMTEyMzM5OTVfRUZGOTlDN0E=] The farmers were hit pretty hard. The banks forclosed on the farms. This resulted in what was called "PENNY AUCTIONS". The farmers would ban together and go bid for the farms at pennies of their value. If the wrong guy bid they would get the SHIP kicked out of them by the other farmers. THIS IS WHY all forclosures auctions are now done at the COURTHOUSE STEPS, close to the POLICE. Here is a question... in this kind and caring socialistic society, are they " THE DEMOCRATCS" going to really force us from our homes and use the POLICE TO DO IT.... Are they going to be KIND with our MONEY or are the BANKS going to take our homes. What happens if we keep protesting paying for the people that made bad decisons. Would no one lose their home? The only thing that is keeping us from Uniting like the Farmers in the Great Depression is US TAKING OUR HANDS and grabbing the BANKERS by the BALLS... [/quote]
