LuLeVan - It's in the best interest of shareholders to see the corporations retain earnings and refunds until fully capitalized. But fraud was involved here in sending their equity to the Treasury. I expect the courts to award plaintiffs (only plaintiffs) back dividends going back to 2012, plus reimbursement of legal fees.
Luvan - when will the money be raised? If Scotus doesn’t raise “some” money, then what about the CFC? How does the takings settle? If LP is written to 0 by Scotus, how does the CFC settle without Treasury providing substantial funding based on how the GSEs would be better capitalized if the NWS never happened?
Shareholders, if Scotus doesn’t give all the money back from 2012 going forward, will have 2 bights at the apple.
This whole TINA thought process is completely myopic - need to see the forest beyond the trees ...
Ah, but there IS a "hidden coffer" of cash, indeed! (for shareholders to recapitalize).
YOU posted:
there are no hidden coffers full of money waiting to be distributed to (any kind of) shareholders.
The "hidden coffer" is the money the government stole from us to "protect taxpayers". Where did that money go? The corrupt politicians who stole it dont want to admit "they spent it", so, when Scotus orders "restitution" for damages (stolen money), those corrupt politicians, who managed to spend 300 billion stolen, will have to "find a way" to pay it back, if Scotus so orders!
The government alleged the NWS was to "protect taxpayers" not fill up government's coffers. This suggests our money was "a deposit", sort of like a rental security deposit for when the renters skip town.
Well, we did not skip town, paid our bills on time, so now, we deserve our deposit returned to us. Its the corrupt government officials who stole our money problem to figure out how to pay it back!!!
Remember, the same corrupt government official (Obama/Biden) that stole the money, is still here (BIDEN). IM "BIDEN" MY TIME to get my money stolen returned to me!
