1. In all fairness, they owned no "wealth" in this sub-prime mess
All they owned was a mortgage on a house that they couldn't afford.

They were screwed, and that needs to be fixed, but the title is a bit misleading if you know what "wealth" and "assets" are. The folks who pushed these loans on them need to be prosecuted, imo.
