		<description>&lt;I&gt;The bank ... has a huge incentive to fund the loan...&lt;/I&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The only incentive the bank has is to maximize its profits. And it can only do that by making wise loans. It's not a "cat-and-mouse scheme" (whatever that means).&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;This is the same kind of tin-foil hat thinking that insists that GE has a light bulb that never burns out, but won't put it on the market for fear of "losing" their profits.</description>
