  Savings and loan association - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Savings and loans accepted deposits and used those deposits, along with other capital that was in their possession, to make loans.
The savings and loan association became a strong force in the early 20th century through assisting people with home ownership, through mortgage lending, and further assisting their members with basic saving and investing outlets, typically through passbook savings accounts and term certificates of deposit.
Savings and loans were given a certain amount of preferential treatment by the Federal Reserve inasmuch as they were given the ability to pay higher interest rates on savings deposits compared to a regular commercial bank.

 Savings and Loans
Building and loan associations originated as part of the cooperative movement that began in England in the eighteenth century and came to the United States in the early nineteenth century.
Building and loan associations were especially popular among the ethnic groups that were hungriest for home ownership, namely the Czechs, Poles, and Italians.
At the end of the twentieth century approximately 14 savings and loans still existed in the Chicago metropolitan area, but there were far fewer than before the 1980s, and their character was more similar to that of banks than was the case before the Great Depression.

 Savings and Loan crisis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Savings and Loan crisis of the 1980s was a wave of savings and loan association failures in the United States in which over 1,000 savings and loan institutions failed in "the largest and costliest venture in public misfeasance, malfeasance and larceny of all time."
Savings and loan institutions (also known as SandLs or thrifts) have existed since the 1800s.
This meant that the value of these loans, the institution's assets, were worth less than the deposits used to make them and the savings and loan's net worth was being eroded.

 Bush FAmily and the Savings and Loan Scandal : LA IMC
The Savings and Loan industry had been experiencing major problems through the late 60s and 70s due to rising inflation and rising interest rates.  Because of this there was a move in the 1970s to replace the role of S&L institutions with banks.
The problems occurred in the Savings and Loan industry as they relate to theft because the industry was deregulated under the Reagan/Bush administration and restrictions were eased on the industry so much that abuse and misuse of funds became easy, rampant, and went unchecked.
There are several ways in which the Bush family plays into the Savings and Loan scandal, which involves not only many members of the Bush family but also many other politicians that are still in office and still part of the Bush Jr.
