I thank the witnesses for their presentations. I note with interest what Mr. Burgess is saying. Does he agree that the banks have a social responsibility given that their debt was socialised, which caused the collapse of the whole economy? I think he is looking at non-performing loans and GDP-to-credit ratios is a narrow and abstract way. Do the private banks, followed by the vulture funds, that caused all of this not have a social responsibility to reach agreements with people who are trying to pay?
