Sweet Justice of the Day: When Bank of America tried to foreclose on Collier County (FL) homeowners Warren and Maureen Nyerges, the couple went to court to prove they never had a mortgage to begin with, having paid in cash.
It took a year, but the pair won their case, and the judge ordered Bank of America to cough up the legal fees. When, after five month, the bank still hadn’t given the Nyergerses a dime, the couple went to their local branch to collect — bringing a foreclosure defense lawyer, Sheriff’s Deputies, and moving trucks along with them.
Turning the tables on Bank of America, attorney Todd Allen instructed his entourage to seize the bank’s assets. “I instructed the deputy to go in and take desks, computers, copiers, filing cabinets, including cash in the drawers,” Allen told WINK News. After a standoff that lasted about an hour, the bank manager cut the couple a check, and Bank of America apologized for the delay, blaming an attorney who went out of business.
“As a foreclosure defense attorney this is sweet justice,” said Allen, “because this is a symptom of a larger problem.”

Strauss vs Klein
Accusing several million teachers of being lazy and caring only for their pensions won’t improve public schools. Using questionable methods to evaluate teachers won’t either. And turning the public education system, a civic institution that is not a business and should not be run as one, into “a competitive marketplace,” as Klein suggests, will cause enormous damage that leaves far more kids behind than there are now.

“In this sense, the Church itself may become State, and the conflict may occur between on the one hand secular (and secularising) civil society, and on the other State/Church (when the Church has become an integral part of the State, of political society monopolised by a specific privileged group, which absorbs the Church in order the better to preserve its monopoly with the support of that zone of “civil society” which the Church represents).”Now replace Church with Finance. Thanks Antonio.
