Biz: Sketchy subprime mortgagers try to screw already-screwed people

  • pre-burst Companies offer subprime mortgages that allow tons of people to get homes that they can’t afford. The companies make out like bandits, but when the housing bubble bursts, those homeowners are screwed. This is pretty evil.
  • post-burst Not afraid to kick already-lowered people or stick the knife further into their backs, the people behind the subprime mortgage companies start new loan-fixing companies, then fail to follow through on promised loan fixes. This is beyond evil. source
