baltimore: BALTIMORE CITY SUES WELLS FARGO - 01/11/08 07:51 AM
Baltimore City has hired a Washington, DC Law Firm to sue Wells Fargo Mortgage because it says that Wells Fargo gave sub-prime mortgages and too many fixed rate mortgages, at a high interest rates, to a large number of Minority home buyers that live in Baltimore City. Although a lot of these homeowners are facing foreclosure. If this works I'm sure that many other Cities will jump on the bandwagon with their own lawsuits.

Maryland, The Stupid State. We have a new Democratic Governor, in an almost all one party State, that thinks by calling a special session of the State houses of Congress and forcing through higher taxes and raising fees on anything and everything in sight, without Public Hearings, because of an imaginary Budget Deficit we will attract new businesses and encourage more people to move to Maryland.
