Zero Hedge is a biggie with me. Smart, irreverent and really cogent about the inner workings of Wall Street and high finance, the articles posted there are spot on regarding the follies the US is plagued with regarding big banks and our money. The gem seen here depicts the Cuisinart process of how a mortgage is turned into a mortgage securitization.
To me, turning sirloin into mystery meat kind of describes the procedure here or...

Priority of Payments from the Security Instrument (Mortgage, Deed of Trust, Security Deed or Mortgage Deed)
Priority of Payments from the Pooling and Servicing Agreement

Take a look at this chart and then decide how long you think it will take for Barney Frank and Eric Holder to sort everything out. Click here to see the expanded chart again.

Question: What do you have when you have 10,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean:

Archimboldo's The Jurist says it all regarding this writer's opinion of lawyers, an all too sizable percentage of same being bottom feeders of the first order. The infestation of lawyers in the tech industry is unprecedented as it's all about the money regarding smart phones/mobile computing, the emerging financial sweet spots of the digital universe.
