It was a planned ideology designed to snooker people into accepting loans they didn't understand and couldn't afford, especially if they were to lose their jobs due to Tush's economic collapse, which most of them did.
Couple that with the 1st piece of legislation the Tushies passed in 2001, which gave more power to corporations, banks in particular with regard to bankruptcy. Can't discharge all debt anymore, so you're on the hook for a portion of it, seemingly forever.
All Bush Crime Family doings, all the time.
