But now the law and the veto are being exponentially expanded to stop ALL foreclosures - and thereby attacking the concept of private capital.

Private capital is being attacked no matter which way we go.

From the article -

written by Rep. Robert Aderholt (R., Ala.), moved through Congress without attracting much attention and appears aimed at a much broader target than the foreclosure process. It would have required state and federal courts to accept documents of many different kinds that are notarized by people or computers in other states.

As a personal anecdote, my mother in law is currently paying off $11,000 of credit card debt that was due to identity theft. She got a summary judgment against her because she did nothing to fight it.

I, on the other hand, was harassed for a larger amount by a bunch of lawyer trying to BS me into thinking they worked for Bank of America [they didn't, they were debt collectors]. Now, I have never even applied for a card from Bank of America, much less owed them the thousands of dollars they claimed.

Their 'evidence' that came with the court summons was a notarized statement from another state saying 'they'd seen the records' and I owed them money. Thank goodness I knew enough about the law to tell them in the reply to produce the contract.

They couldn't, so I was in the clear.

The banks decided to make it 'easier' by going digital, and that's grand, but deciding OUR rights could be sacrificed so they could have their lives made simpler is NOT.

A person of good conscience pays their debts, but a person being thrown out of their home by someone who can't even legally prove they own it is wrong, and IMHO, a failure to uphold even the most basic standards of evidence.

I suggest the instances of this happening is rare, but the Marxists (and the media) want everyone to believe it to be commonplace. That is the issue here. The main goal by them is to attack the concept of private property.

I think this bill has nothing to do with that.

This bill simply permits out of state notarizations to be accepted as valid on their face. The individual can still dispute the validity of the notarization, either out of state or in-state, if he believes fraud is involved and the paperwork has never actually been seen or examined.

After all, an in-state notarization is as much likely to be fraudulent as an out of state notarization.

Accepting out of state notarizations means that people can move ahead without the fear of being stopped by a technicality, depending on their state’s law. And if there is evidence of fraud or error, they still have a legitimate right to contest it, just as if it were an in-state document. And just as you did.
