Thank the fake God , I will die sometime soon. I was thankfully born in the 2nd best window of time in the 20th century ( 1963).
1943 would have been better.Comment -
This went from a mortgage thread to a political debate.
But once you start talking about corrupt,crooked,back door,good ole boy,lying,thievery,I guess the banking industry and the politicians are close enough to mesh together.Comment -
There does exist a Hell of a lot of potential short-term housing , that could become 5 year + long term stuff in a 1930's style Depression.
Young adults can go back to living with parents....Seniors go to living with the kids they raised ( payback)

How do the Chinese house 5X the population of USA , on less land ?
No good jobs in USA left....go commune it up....don't need them houses.

i think it shifted from a state of the economy to politics cause you can never just state a fact like "the economy is in the toilet". which it is. from there, instead of talking solutions, blame is thrown about. both parties are to blame.Originally posted by str
Americans are not to blame, our 'elected' officials are. and while elections have consequences, Americans are faced with the choice between lying shitty crook politician and shitty lying crook politician.
funny how you can't just make a statement of certainty that is factually correct and can be proven by all sorts of statistical measurements without emotion clouding judgment and leading people to make just completely erroneous and outlandish claims.
as for blame, obama wanted the job and knew what came with it. we have gone from "the buck stops here"** to, and he said again 2 days ago, "the previous administration".
fukkin sad.
**- for those of you too dense to actually know American History the buck stops here was a phrase used on a sign adorning President Truman's desk. it was kind of in response to "pass the buck", which equated to passing the responsibility to someone else. a way to avoid accountability.Comment -
What ALL politicians bank on is that they will touch on something that is near and dear to your heart simply to gain your vote. Cute little catch phrases that they steal from one election to the next.
Funny no one has the Balls to use the one mentioned in the previous response.
"The buck stops here."
The whole thing is pathetic. Add too that the Rush Limbaugh and whoever the other side has as there jack ass, scare tactic, piece of money grabbing crap, and you quickly gain the one and only thing these thieves need....DIVISION.
Divide and conquer.
They think(and sadly it has been proven) that the masses are asses and "we" will believe anything they throw at us especially if it scares us.
They lie,cheat, and when caught, apologize and pray to God that they can become a better person.
These guys bank on middle classed,middle aged people who, because of where they are in life's cycle,having big problems.
When they address these problems, all they do is try to make you afraid of it, and tell you who is to blame for it.
That helps them KEEP there job BUT they do not DO there job!!
What a F 'IN joke. And a sad one at that.Comment -
The economy is becoming more equalized on a global level....IE some dot-head in India can often take your job !
