Hillary will sell 'Protection Insurance' to vulnerable businesses.

Remember the old economic adage, “What you subsidize, you get more of.”

“Kristi and her husband can no longer afford to live in their home, because their adjustable-rate mortgage payments grew from $2,400 to $6,000 per month.”

I have no concept of how big a house (or how much you can borrow) for $2400 a month. Anybody??

If this becomes law, our Grandchildren will never be able to afford a house of their own...And who is going to pay for this?

Schofield said, “We tried to do the right thing and continued to make the payments as long as we could with our savings and what earnings we had from unemployment, temporary and part-time work.”

Oh, pullleeeeaaassseeee......you shouldn't be living so HIGH, Ms. Schofield.....

Ok, let me get this straight: Clinteone wants to take yet more of the money I earn, by working, to subsidize those that can’t afford their mortgage payment by utilizing unemployment checks, part-time jobs and other non full-time work means, thereby creating in me a person who can’t afford his mortgage any longer because a lot of the money I’ve earned is going towards taxes, making me have to rely on these subsidies and creating yet another Democratic voter because I couldn’t afford to vote sensibly any longer because I am relying on socialism to keep my house?

Here’s one remedy. Require that all mortgage holders have a verifiable social security number. That would clean up half the sub prime mess.

“Kristi and her husband can no longer afford to live in their home, because their adjustable-rate mortgage payments grew from $2,400 to $6,000 per month.”

I’m tired of people living beyond their means and then expecting the rest of us to bail them out! I personally wouldn’t dream of paying $2,400 a month on a fixed rated mortgage, let alone something that you know will adjust.

Hillary Clinton has been living off the backs of the tax payer the better part of her life so for her to bail these buffoons out with our tax dollars means nothing to her.

Worse, if Clinton’s plan and similar plans touted by her Democratic opponents were to become law, the element of risk in borrowing and investing capital would disappear.

The queen of cattle futures certainly knows how to take the risk out of investing. MOOOOOVE on Hillary.

Amble Hillary amble!

Hillary to the people “What you have belong to me”. “I will take away from you for your own good and to help me”.

Anyone who wants a serious mortgage and actually responds to one of those ridiculous "Dancing Mortgage Ads" is a fool.

Hey, I want a $600,000 mortgage for only $1,100 per month!!!

My least favorite is the one with the surprised girl dancing. Then there is one with two idiotic girls, dancing and looking surprised too.

Dumb bunnies who sign thos ARMs shoulda thought about that before hand....what if their company goes belly up, what if they get canned, get sick, their hubby croaks, they get the big D, there is a war, a tornado, they get demoted instead of promoted....the marketplace doesn’t owe them a raise in three yeears....they can’t predict the future....on the other hand we can hope for them that their rich uncle leaves them a million, that they win the lottery, that their ship comes in but no guarantees.

How much would you have to borrow and at what interest rate to get to $6000/month? I ran a few numbers.....

For a 30-year mortgage: about $817,000 at 8% (an initial rate of 1.25% would have started the payments at $2800/month before going up after the fixed rate period). For a 20-year mortgage: borrow $595,000 at 1.25% initial, rising to 10.5% to bring it close to $6000/month - which is highly unlikely as a top rate. My guess is they borrowed a bleepload of money, far beyond their means, and now want to be bailed out by the taxpayer via Dona Hillary.

Liberal politicians whole reason for being is to have people (uninformed but willing voters) be dependent on them.
Conservatives say, what happened to you is unfortunate. Let’s see what needs to be done (if anything) to fix it, so you don’t need our help again.

Just like the mistimed attack of 9/11 (what if it happened during the 2000 presidential electial dysfunction?), and the mistimed bubble burst of tech stocks before the election of a republican president, this market correction will be yesterday’s nonevent before leftists economics can make ammunition of it. This real estate correction was a long time in the making and many had their wits to prepare for it. The tech stocks (more like a bubble crunch than a pop) were a blue print of market recovery for other products. Real estate will have a soft landing. People will have homes to live in and there won’t be starvation in the street. Culture of Death and the false prophet (or would that be false “profit”) loses again.

The funny thing about all this to me is...Some lady somewhere is going to vote for Hillary! holding onto a final bit of hope that she will fix this mortgage ‘mess’ and their family will be able to keep their house...

Like that is going to happen...Like Hillary! really cares...
