You obviously need to take a Economics 101 course. Vacant, boarded homes are a physical and economic blight on any neighborhood. They devalue EVERYBODY's home. The only help these people who are upside down in their mortgages is government intervention

Evidently the Econ 101 course you took was written by one of Keynes' disciples and you swallowed it whole. A blighted neighborhood makes you feel bad, so you want to a government program to bail out the afflicted. Such a nice sob story- have you considered working on Hillary's campaign?

I'm not looking for a bailout anytime soon.

But if enough Americans are in foreclosure...look for a stroke of a pen in Washington to make it right in some way.

And why don't you try some new material...the old, "you're a liberal" is pretty lame.

Even for you.
