I’m waiting for the day Hillary panders by suggesting that the government could do a better job and should finance these mortgages using several different methods:

A. Repealing Bush’s tax cuts.
B. Raising taxes on the rich.
C. Expanding the death tax to include live people.
D. A higher tax on cigarettes.

“Smith, the vice president of Westview Community Organization Inc., keeps a map of the area, tracking each vacant property and notifying local officials when criminal activity is suspected.”

At least Mr. Smith is trying to keep his neighborhood up. We need more citizens like him. Good for him.
