Banking crisis within the UK?

Is anyone actually surprised about the difficulties we are experiencing over the crash contained by the sub-prime lending market?
You lend money to individuals who can't afford it (charging them extra because they can't afford it!), they find it difficult to repay and end up being re-possessed. The guard don't get the money back but don't keeping because they've sold the debt already....WHY did anyone think this was a dutiful idea in the first place, and who'se really to blame the relatives who couldn't pay back the mortgages, the bank who loaned the money or the people trying to make a hastily buck buying and selling the debts?

Answers:    It's not a crisis. The London stock exchange crashing would be a crisis. We're being hit by a slight recession, which the media are sensationalising as the "Credit Crunch".

The providers of loans are merciless contained by reclaiming debts and yes I agree that more knowlege should be provided by lenders regarding interest. However it's not easier said than done to understand that if you earn 14k a year and need to embezzle a 20k loan out, of course it's going to take a while to retribution it back. I think some population dont understand that only 15% of their stipend is disposable income. People need to learn to live inwardly their means.
With lenders giving out mortgages that were 8X annual salary, I think it starts with them, but you enjoy to question the intelligence of people who borrow money next to repayments of lb1000 per month.
When it comes to reposessions, the barstards always come out smelling of roses, the borrower just get hammered into an early grave.

I agree near you totally.
not quite sure what the question is, but i agree near your rhetoric.
