Note: Using a computer program for a credit score sounds a bit odd to me - but if that's how they want to do it fine.

Listening to a radio show today, the collectivist Zionist Thom Hartmann, who thinks we live in a "democracy" didn't have anything useful to offer as usual - but a caller - Phil - brought up the interesting question:

"If so many people can't pay their mortgages - why isn't the PMI (Private Mortgage Insurance) paying off the loans? Isn't that the purpose of PMI? " Thom, like everyone else listening was bewildered - why in the heck doesn't PMI cover this - unless that banks were self-insuring. Phil offered an answer: "Because it's a scam!"
