I think fakey said this....
but I'm going to say it again.


There should be a policy where people has to achieve a passing grade on mandatory test in order to vote.

Its sad when ppl vote not knowing a single thing about the candidate their voting for.
Or when they say " I wonit havea to worry bout payin my mourgega or filling da car width gas" ..
But hey.. I hear its the cool thing to do ...

moreover, i think voting should be mandatory. in Scandinavia, if you dont vote - you will be charged something like 200 $ in extra taxes.

It's coming. It is part of the Obama Plan. However, only those making $100K or more will be charged, and the proceeds will go to ACORN.

Man that lady and all the other Obama voters are going to be really upset when they realize they still have to pay for their own gas and mortgages.

If Obama wins tomorrow, I am resigning. No need to work, because Barrack is gonna give me cash to pay my mortgage, health care, college tuition, and retirement. After you guys pay all of that for me, all I will need is food and play money. I will work as an undocumented, non-tax paying worker to get that. Thanks Barrack.

You shouldn't be ALLOWED to vote ules you have a vested interest in the country. And then you shouls have to pass a stupid test on top of it.

It's been a hilarious year.

I'll see nothing from it because I didn't buy houses or have kids I couldn't afford. In short only irresponsible people gets breaks anymore.

this is what bothers me the most about the bailout plan.
Here is the scenario.

Both my neighbor and I buy into a nice gated community paying just under $300k. For the most part it is a dream home, my house my children will grow up in
5 bedrooms,3 baths, a playroom and a pool on a lake.
So I do what I thought was the responsible thing. I put a good chuck of money down so my mortgage is $125k.
This is an affordable price for the tougher times.

Mr neighbor buys in, puts the minium down, and then borrows $200k against the equity as our home values skyrocket during the boom.
Now he has a $475k mortgage.

Home values plummet to $200k.
He can get a loan adjustment from $475 to $200k because he has a "Bad Mortgage".

I get the "Rigid Digit salute" because my value is more than I owe, yet I put $175k of my hard earned money down.
Where is my bailout, my fair shair to help me for being responsible.

Now FEMA comes in and determines I am in a flood zone, after 4 years of building the house.
I need a new site survey,($150) what did my fucking h0use sink?? what is wrong with the original.

Oh and if I would have responded by August 1st they would have used the original survey.
I got the F U C K I N G letter October 1st, so thanks for the heads up.

I swear if I didnt have a wife and kids, I would not be in this place.

Natron, i worked some time in mortgages.

usually Escrow MUST check before the deal which insurances are needed. and determine if the property is in a flood zone.
we had loan applicationss delayed in the process....beacause these documents were missing in underwriting.

who has not fullfilled his tasks here ?

when i built the house 3.5 years ago we were not considered in a flood zone.
Now FEMA has rezoned it.
My insurance company needs a current elevation certificate so they can quote me correctly.just a crock o shite if u ask me.

The "bailout" just shifted the risk, it did not eliminate it. Also, some banks are using bailout money not to make loans, but to buy other banks. we claim to have a free market and capitalism, but we don't. It would be nice if we did.

I see the capitalist system has let you guys down. I'm sorry to hear this. Money capitalists (investors who have no direct relationship to the actual production of goods) often snort cocaine off hookers’ chests and squander our money. :)
