Of course this still has to go through Congress where it will get a bunch of crap amended to it and blah, blah, blah. It is not the government's job to intervene on the free market. If people are irresponsible then there is no reason to change the market to cater to them, hurting others who were prepared. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

I blame the home owners and the lenders cause they knew damn well what they were doing.
they were even given people who could afford a home and had good credit these shitty deals. true, the people should read the contract. but the lenders should know the outcome of it as well. -------------------- |
