Well most if not all of these 'action it...Hmmm. Well most if not all of these 'action items' take personal responsibility away from PEOPLE and put it squarely on the government. Humans are (were) an adaptable species, so what's wrong with actually adapting? Can't afford what you once could? Change your lifestyle. By Mr. Moore's rationale the large majority of home owners won't be responsible by the fact that they didn't do a modicum of thinking before purchasing their home. What's an adjustable rate mortgage? What happens WHEN the economy stops being as robust as it has and I'm not making as much money? Believe it or not, there was a time when Americans made sacrificies in their lives to maintain what they had as opposed to spending (or living off credit) indescriminately and then waited for a goverment 'fix'. It's hard for me to have pity on those who purchased homes far in excess of their means, or taking on short-term interest-only rates that they did zero research on. You're not buying a magazine or a candy bar; this is a HOUSE, so take it seriously or risk what these people risk. It's culling the fiscal herd and seems to happen every few decades. :/Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09692099454767366975noreply@blogger.com
