Now, the people who can't pay for their mortgages can't pay the tax bill. So it falls to middle class america and guess what? It's going to be wiped out so these over paid CEO's can ride off into the susnset with nothing to worry about but whether their personal chef will serve lobster or fillet for dinner.

The housing market is such a mess and driven my 1) irresponsible consumer spending but moreso 2) irresponsible corporate lending. And it has snowballed into a humungous problem. I knew the issue would explode eventually and become an economic crisis, but I thought it would be more of a crisis affecting also existing and responsible homeowners in an inflated and overbuilt market. I REALLY didn't think it would turn into such a nationwide epidemic and consequentailly a potentially global meltdown. It sucks. <BR/><BR/>KEEP BELIEVINGAngie @ KEEP BELIEVINGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930977696454848345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-33158623941734331702008-09-23T13:41:00.000-04:002008-09-23T13:41:00.000-04:00I say we bring you and Mrs. G in to straighten out...I say we bring you and Mrs. G in to straighten out this mess.
