This is the most ignorant statement I hear people make on this post.

The banks were not forced to make terrible loans. They did it on their own free will because of the creative financing technique called securitization.

If they are talking about CRA, that was a very minor part of the overall picture.

… their own insurance & study hard in school, but so many penalties on those of us who were responsible with our mortgages, savings, education and jobs?

Home prices fall in March .5% in 20 major cities.

How is it doing? Has anyone seen information on exactly how many people have been helped by BO’s plot.
