  • Mortgage Backed Securities are like boxes of chocolates.
  • Criminals on Wall Street stole a few chocolates from the boxes and replaced them with turds.
  • Their criminal buddies at Standard & Poor rated these boxes AAA Investment Grade chocolates.
  • These boxes were then sold all over the world to investors.
  • Eventually somebody bites into a turd and discovers the crime.
  • Suddenly nobody trusts American chocolates anymore worldwide.
  • Hank Paulson now wants the American taxpayers to buy up and hold all these boxes of turd-infested chocolates for $700 billion dollars until the market for turds returns to normal.
  • Meanwhile, Hank's buddies, the Wall Street criminals who stole all the good chocolates are not being investigated, arrested, or indicted.
Mama always said: "Sniff the chocolates first Forrest".
