Book excerpt: Excerpt from Loans to Speculators Produce Tax Free Bonds for Rich Investors: Violations of Law Encouraged by the Federal Farm Loan Board, the Iowa Lake Loan and Other Unlawful Cases Like all other experimental schemes for public betterment, the test of actual trial has shown, in three years of operation, that the Federal Farm Loan Act could be improved by amendment. Heavy income taxes levied on a graduated scale to pay war debts, have brought out with startling distinctness the most vicious defect in the law. This naturally leads to ignoring the precautionary provisions of the law in order to produce a large volume of tax-free bonds to satisfy the demands of wealthy tax-evading investors. Large loans are made to rich farmers, while small farmers are often overlooked. Real estate speculators and non-resident owners are financed, though the law requires that loans be confined to men who cultivate their own land. Federal supervision and the co-operative feature of the act were considered the most important points in the law when it was enacted. These would not be impaired if the tax exemption section were repealed. The practical results of the law were discussed at length by Congressman L. T. McFadden in his speech of June 16, 1919. Many good loans are made by the Federal Land Banks. They also make great numbers of loans which prudent private investors refuse as hazardous and excessive. Good business judgment and restrictions of law have too often been cast aside in the effort to secure a large volume of loans and in the intent to make the system politically popular with the borrowers. Considerable space is given in this pamphlet to the Iowa Lake loan, because the question of veracity is involved. The Omaha Federal Land Bank made a bad loan and also violated the plain intent of the law in so doing. Mr. Varick C. Crosley, a reliable citizen of Webster City, told the truth about it. The Omaha bank officials tried to discredit Mr. Crosley by their denials. The Portland, Ore., "Journal" of September 18, 1919, attempts to justify an editorial on the Iowa Lake loan and proves that the Federal Farm Loan Board has either been badly deceived or its representative is misquoted. In either case: the Board owes Mr. Crosley a public apology. The Portland "Journal" says. Judge Lobdell, a member of the Farm Loan Board, was in Portland the other day. He told the writer of the editorial that the case in Iowa had been fully investigated by the Board, and that everything connected with it was proper and the loan completely justified. A private citizen like Mr. Crosley is at a great disadvantage both as to prestige and publicity facilities when engaged in a dispute with Washington officials or with a large bank which prints and distributes attacks upon him that go to thousands of people who never hear his side of the case. Several agricultural newspapers have been deceived. The statements made by the Federal Land Bank authorities in connection with the Iowa Lake loan are so inexcusable that the public will look with suspicion on any other reports made by them. The purpose of this publication is to show the weakness of a system which permits fraudulent transactions of this kind to take place in the most reliable agricultural state in the world. What a critical congressional investigation would reveal in less favored farming localities can be easily imagined. The statements, facts and conclusions set forth in this pamphlet are supported by data furnished from reliable sources and are believed to be correct in every particular. Comments, criticisms, and additional facts are invited. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com

Download or read book The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report written by Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker. He has been reporting on economic crises since the 1980's when he was with ABC News. His film In Debt We Trust warned of the economic meltdown in 2006. He has since written three books on the subject including Plunder: Investigating Our Economic Calamity (Cosimo Books, 2008), and The Crime Of Our Time: Why Wall Street Is Not Too Big to Jail (Disinfo Books, 2011), a companion to his latest film Plunder The Crime Of Our Time.

Book Synopsis Gambling and Speculation by : Reuven Brenner
Download or read book Gambling and Speculation written by Reuven Brenner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1990-03-30 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gambling and Speculation takes the long, historic perspective of its controversial subject. The book offers not only a better understanding of the recent "gambling craze," but also a fundamental inquiry into human nature and the structure of societies. The Brenners argue that the negative image of gamblers and of speculators stems from prejudice, whose roots are in the distant, forgotten past. Legal scholars have frequently confused gambling with speculation and the anti-gambling laws were, at times, erroneously interpreted as implying the prohibitions of contracts in futures and insurance markets. One consequence of all this confusion was that during this century both in the United States and England, the legislation and law on betting and gambling became ambiguous. The authors touch on this issue and make policy recommendations: to abolish restrictions on the industry, diminish the states' role in selling lotteries, and, at the same time, make legal distinctions capable of helping the tiny percentage of players who might be "addicted." The Brenners' recommendations on gambling are based on their conclusion that gamblers are neither "mentally ill" nor "criminals" and that gambling does not lead its practitioners to poverty. Rather, it is the other way around: some of the poor and the frustrated gamble. Looking at gambling in this way leads to questions about the nature of society: What do the fortunate do for those who are not? What is society's obligation to people who fall behind in the game of life? Answers to these questions require a discussion on the principles of equality, capitalism, the role of religious influence on society, topics that the Brenners have discussed in their previous studies, and they do so here too, putting gambling within its proper, historical context.
