Susan Wharton Gates: Days of Slaughter

Gates (2017, p. 4).
“You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.” Bible James 5:5, New International Version, at http://biblehub.com/james/5-5.htm.
Both Gates (2017, p. 77) and Howard (2014, pp. 92–95) discuss this event, with the latter lamenting that Fannie Mae should have talked Freddie Mac out of it.
