Between the borrowers and lenders, everyone else lived the high life while you and I stayed in our modest, affordable homes and now we get to bail them out. Yay us.
I don’t think we should help the foreclosure problem or the banks that got in this mess.
Or decided that buying a home was an irresponsible risk that couldn't be afforded... and now I have to pay someone else's mortgage while I don't even own my own place.
Or decided that building in a floodplain was stupid... and now I have to pay to rebuild someone else's place while I don't even own my own place.
etc.
