You just have to trust the banking overlords. To do otherwise would be un-American. I'm sure they hold our best interests in their hearts.
 
Although it's Canadian, this seems oddly appropriate... (stick with it, it'll make sense about half-way in).

 
Let's see...

Here's my analogy that I came up with earlier today with a small revision.

You decide to go to dinner with someone you don't know. This person is Ginormously fat. The fat friend wants to go to the pay per plate buffet. You figure, I'll get what I want, they'll get what they want, and we'll both be happy.

The fat friend decides to invite a bunch of his other fat friends, and when word of this gets around the Fat Friend community, there's way more fat friends than you thought coming to dinner.

So you, and your newfound fat friends go to the restaurant where they eat and eat and eat. Then, one by one they leave not paying their bill. Ultimately, the last fat friend leaves, and says, don't worry we'll pay you back.

You break out your credit card and find out you don't have enough money to cover your bill. So, you now have to work it off. Meanwhile, you have a Fat Chinese Co-worker who is looking to score with some property they want. In exchange they'd be willing to loan you some of their money to pay for your fat friend's appetites.

Does that about sum it up?
 
Here's my analogy. A guy is walking down the street. Another guy, already a billionaire, walks up, shoots him in the balls and takes his wallet. Story over.
