This is one reason I am so grateful to Free Republic. It gives us a chance to get the news out there. Not everyone would be aware if we didn't have this forum to post articles that I call "What's going on behind our backs."

Thank God for Free Republic!

In my warped imagination, I could one day see a politician declaring that owning your home could come under "the sin tax".

Afterall, "how dare you work your butt off to save up money for a down payment while poor people suffer and are forced to live in cramped apartments. Your "sin" of not caring enough has forced us, your elected officials, to impose a tax to punish you. Of course we the virtous elected officials have exempt ourselves from this tax because we are free from sin".
