EDITOR’S COMMENT: Inch by inch the judicial system is getting closer to unraveling the truth about mortgages, securitization, and foreclosures. The process is extremely painful for those whose homes have been or are sliding toward foreclosure (10.6 million more expected soon). On one hand we can say that is unacceptable because it is.

On the other hand, we must remember that virtually everything the Banks did was counter-intuitive, and that breaking through what appears to be “common sense” takes a while to digest. Why would anyone “loan” money that they knew would probably not be repaid? Why would anyone sell securities that they knew would fail and why would they make sure those securities failed? Why would the Banks be unconcerned about whether they were repaid, and unconcerned about whether they lose some foreclosure cases? How could losing a foreclosure case to a borrower not be a loss to the Bank?

There are answers to these questions that can be found in abundance on this Blog, other Blogs and many case decisions now, but it is difficult for even the victims to fathom how they were hoodwinked into thinking they owed a debt that they didn’t owe, to a creditor that didn’t exist.

Think about it. If you were sitting in the Judges chair, wouldn’t you be skeptical about these claims by borrowers? Wouldn’t you take it slow?
