Reply #21: Well, that's just a shameless fabrication.

"Since no bank has defaulted on TARP and the TARP preferred paid 5%, then the bare minimum ROI is 5%."

This is just a complete an utter fabrication. You are predicting these returns, but I am asking what the return is in present reality. You either can't read, don't understand the distinction between "future" and "present", or are intentionally attempting to mislead people. Which is it? :hi:

PS Remember last week when you lost an argument, and you just began making up bizarre ad homs, e.g.:

HamdenRice: "He said that anyone with more than $1000 in the bank is a "class traitor"?

Remember slinking off without comment when challenged on it? Your fabrications do not persuade any but those who already agree with you; but your lack of integrity is plain to see.
