I agree with Mr. Kissane and with his sentiments. The way these individuals have been treated is disgusting. It is heartbreaking. After one of the meetings the committee had with one of the banks, I received an email. The person wrote that she had cried and cried and cried, because her voice was being articulated for the first time by members of this committee. She had felt powerless. She had done exactly what Mr. Kissane described. She emptied every bucket. Emotional torture was inflicted on her, and in the end, when the banks had to acknowledge that the game was up, she was not adequately compensated.
