You never cease to amaze me, Millions lost their jobs, yep and most refused a lower paying job because unemployment paid more, well, good ol bama used tax payer money to bail these people out by giving them an extension, an extension they abused, and while we had millions with extensions, they still refused to look for work, in the mean time, more businesses went under because there was no cash flow, no customers, small business was hit the hardest, big business downsized.
Million lost their homes, most of those were the sub-prime loans, people who had no business owning a home to begin with, Do you know what sub-prime means?
People with poor credit and lower income, Did the banks and mortgage companies take advatage of these people, well, yes and no, they were under pressure to give these loans, by some unions, SEIU Comes to mind right off the bat.
They were screaming, equal and fair, your discriminatiing agaist people give them a loan.
Now because I know many who have lost their homes, let me tell you this, they were living High on the hog, didn't put money away for such an event as illness or job loss. Didn't get rid of the cable and internet, didn't get a more affordable car, didn't stop with the shopping sprees and trips to cedar point.
Then these morons had the audacity to blame the bank, really, no one told you to live beyond your means, no one told you to take an equity loan out to pay your credit cards.
The bank loaned you the money, that means you have to pay it back or lose your home, you signed on the dotted line, that was the agrrement.
Side note, anyone and I mean anyone, who takes equity out of their home to pay other debt is a moron, plain and simple.
Home loans are secured debt, credit cards are not.
You don't blame the dentist if you get a cavity, you don't blame the grocery store for charging you for food, you don't blame the car repair shop, because your brakes are bad.
I am sick of people crying about being required to pay for themselves,
Now the government is bailing home owners out with , yep, tax payer money.
It is not up to the tax payers to make sure someone keeps their home.
The only people who want re-distribution of wealth are those who don't want to earn their keep, or want something for nothing.
Now your nothing more than a plant and a puppet, trying to sway voters, by reminding the greedy, all the free they can have.
Most people on this thread see right through you.
BUYLOW, Fell free to check for spelling errors now!
But if you call me A DRUNK INDIAN again, we are going to have words.
Keep your racism and sterotyping to yourself
