Mortgages operate through securitisation - it's not a case of the banks simply loaning from their deposit base.
In fact it's the complete opposite - loans create deposits. Banks simply make loans based on a persons ability to pay / service them - then they find the money through securitisation methods.
The securitisation is when an asset is converted into a marketable security.
THese marketable securities have a life span often of 30 years.
Other methods like transfer pricing [a legal form of tax avoidance] and forward exchange contracts to reduce risk where goods are purchased and sold in foreign currencies are also a reason why larger firms / corporations tend to operate lengthy payment terms.
Impeachment vote today. McConnell has already said that he refuses to be impartial, which is technically a criminal offence since he takes an oath to do that very thing, but there's really little chance of any Republicans being brave enough to break ranks anyway.
Good ol democracy, where the jury gets to ask the defendant how they should vote. Lol.
it will be interesting to see how the Dems vote as well.
wonder if any are willing to break ranks in order to cover their asses in the election. polls* havent been favourable to a few. principle v self preservation. human nature generally has a big problem with that one.
*obvs not that they are any indicator these days.
Impeachment is still at well over 50% public approval, no impeachment is around *45%.
But i've only read of 1 Dem saying he won't impeach, he then said he would defect to the Republicans... and then his staff quit, lol. (https://news.yahoo.com/trump-praises...134305542.html). Best part is now he got new numbers saying he will probably lose the next election if he changes teams so wants to stay Democrat, and they don't want him. Well played sir.
The democrats have demonstrated that they are not afraid to use up scarce real resources in pursuit of their own personal agendas.
If only they made this much effort trying to solve issues like unemployment, education, and health care.
When America goes to the polls people will once again see the democrats for what they are rich khunts pretending they have a social conscience - when nothing could be further from the truth.
All this time and effort pursuing Trump when they have no chance of getting enough votes to remove him from office shows just how out of touch the democrats are with what the people want or need from those supposedly representing them.
What's the point ?
Ouch. If I read that correctly, that's gonna hurt.
Well, he's now only the 3rd president to be impeached. Who thinks he'll quit before the senate trial in January?
Oh the hypocrisy of the Democrats. You have an election around the corner why not let the people decide Trumps fate like they did Hillary's.
hey man history will show he was only the 3rd Pres to cop the charge. he can never escape that 'honour'.
i think the Republicans have played the victimhood pretty well though.
can only think that if the Dems are successful in the 2020 election, this tactic will be fair game for everyone in the future.(which aint a good thing).
one thing is sure, they are gonna need one hell of a salesperson to push this case in the general election because Trump gonna be coming in hot.
also, Republicans already seeking revenge by dragging everyone in whos name popped up in the hearings. just ugly all round.
Gotta admire the balls on the Iranians
That takes some balls
But not are they gonna cop a flogging for it
Iran aren't scared of the USA on home soil.
Until Saddam Hussein helped them the US haven't really managed to put up much resistance against the Iranians.
The 1979 Iran Hostage crisis saw the US cop a flogging.
Then in 1988 the US shot down a passenger jet killing 292 civilians - 66 of whom were children. Their excuse was they mistakenly identified an A300 Airbus for a fighter plane.
This situation will be no different. The US will either cop a flogging or they will be held responsible / questioned about taking measures equally as disturbing as the enemy they are trying to defeat.
This type of conflict is pretty much unwinnable for the USA - and Iran knows this.
Hopefully Bahrain and Iraq put paid to any chance the Socceroos could go there in the next WC quals.
Reconsider your need to travel to Pakistan due to the security situation and high threat of terrorist attack, kidnapping and violence.
Higher levels apply in some parts of the country.
Do not travel to Balochistan, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (excluding Chitral district) and border areas with Afghanistan and India (excluding Lahore, Wagah, Kasur, Narowal and Sialkot).
If you do travel, get professional security advice. Your travel insurance policy might be void. The Australian Government may not be able to help you.
I see what you mean. Complete soft ****s....... :wanker:
Terrorist incidents by country in 2019
Country Number of
incidents Deaths Injuries
Afghanistan 966 465 702
Nigeria 484 1,805 1,031
Pakistan 276 640 400
Syria 243 2,026 1,303
Yemen 226 762 722
Egypt 224 877 626
Libya 190 289 171

Thailand 179 72 270
Republic of the Congo 143 596 193
Mali 141 361 347
United Kingdom 122 42 301
Lets not let the truth get in the way of uneducated opinion though.
Statistics mean **** all
Those stats show Thailand with 179 incidents
Yet I see no sign of these issues you speak of in LoS
Because the issues you speak of are local issues of domestic problems on the border between Thailand and Malaysia and foreigners ain't the target
Other countries have toured Pakistan yet our weak cricketers haven't
Having followed through with my new years resolution to abandon reading ABC news it was interesting to come across this article on Sky and notice the change...
https://www.skynews.com.au/details/f...ial-revolution
Simple, I don't like ABC news.
This is what bugs me personally....
Morrison, Trump, Boris and Brexit were all voted in by democratic elections despite the negative hysteria generated in some areas of media. But the vocal minority cannot accept the umpires decision and say so with this "not my president" type of rant.
Many didn't want same sex marriage but it was voted democratically and you hear very little about it now - it was accepted.
Why??
The left's position is the position of those who resort to feelings an emotion rather than logic
Ie the decisions of women and children
You go have a look at the left in all their glory
Most of them are cat loving females and beta males and they have little idea abput the realities of the world
There ain't a hell of a lot of intelligence in their arguments either
The best thing that could happen going forward is Bernie or Warren get the DNC nomination so they can be slaughtered again for playing identity politics
Right Wing logic in action.
