I think this mortgage pkg is unfair and un-American. Many call the bankers greedy. What about these folks buying $ multi-six-figure mansions with no money down when they work at minimum wage jobs? Oh, and then they didn't understand the mortgage payments *sob*. Sure, people get suckered everyday by salesmen. You learn from that. The govt comes in and saves their sorry a**es so they can keep doing it.
Yes, I commiserate with responsible folks who lost good jobs and cannot maintain their payments. So, they rent out their homes to cover the payment and move into a small flat. Just being responsible. And they can't get a break?
Sure, empty homes in a neighbourhood deflates the area's home prices, but how about the banks renting these places out?

So, what's next, paying off these losers' credit card debt? Obama is really good at throwing out the cash for his loser fans. I wonder if any of these folks will even think about getting a job anytime. No wonder some states don't want some of the stimulus money. Sure, the fed will pay more unemployment bennies for awhile and then the states have to assume the higher-cost programmes, keeping the lazy feks on the dole lines. I heard Obama may even try to circumvent these state governors and go straight to the state legislatures. Fek, he's a micro-managing power monger.
