McCain will unveil
plan to help homeowners who have 'burdensome' mortgages
During a business roundtable today in Brooklyn, Republican presidential candidate John McCain will propose what he calls a HOME plan that would give "every deserving American family or homeowner the opportunity to trade a burdensome mortgage for a manageable loan that reflects the market value of their home."
Heh, I have a 30 year fixed mortgage at 5.25% on a house I bought 10 years ago.
I've watched it triple in price to the peak last year. It's gone down a little bit, but it's still close to triple
I pay income taxes.
Payments are 1/7th my income, and I made half what I do now when I bought it.
Still... that payment is burdensome! It's a BIG check to write. 8 times bigger than my car payment, and my house doesn't even MOVE. I want free gov't money! Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! Why punish me with no free money when I did everything right? I should be rewarded! Gimme!
And Senator McCain (D-Arizona) can't tell me I don't deserve it. He doesn't know me! He can't dictate my needs. And I NEED a new flat screen HD TV, maid service, a garden shed, a Springfield M1A, and a few other items and gov't should have to pay for. The gov't should give ME what I want for once, instead of everyone else.
A manageable loan would be at 2% I think. No closing costs or fees. I have GREAT credit.
Why is it, when I did everything right I get punished by taking my money away and giving it to someone that did everything wrong and bought more house than they could afford? Why can't we just agree that I leave them alone and they leave me alone on most stuff? Why does gov't gotta always stick their nose in it?
And it's not just McCain. The other presidential contenders, the Congress, my Governor, all want to take my money and give it to some idjit that thinks he's entitled to it and shouldn't have to be responsible for himself. I pick on McCain because I naively think he's better than that. It may be a forlorn hope.
How come whenever there is a 'problem' the first thought people have is, "Well we can fix THIS with some Socialism!!!" It's almost like they had the solution ready to go and were just hunting around for a problem. Got bug spray killing all the robins and chickadees? Here's some Socialism! Too many people on the planet? Voila, Socialism. Ice Age a comin'? SOCIALISM! Hot age a comin'? Rub some Socialism on that, it'll clear right up. Smoot Hawley tariff killed imports/exports? Instead of opening up trade how bout we fix that with some Socialism? Everyone has access to healthcare but some people don't have the prestige of health INSURANCE? That's a problem this here Socialism can fix. And use some good ol' Socialism to pay for mortgages of the people that couldn't afford mortgages.
Where's that flat screen TV you people owe me? And that's just the start.
Sheesh.

My mortgage is 2 times bigger and I have 2 ex-wives, a new wife, and 2 kids to support.
They should help me before you!!
Get in line!
YBtGE
Just use some Socialism on those little nippers and the ex-wives. I'll give the gov't a break and take that new wife off your hands. Tell Missus MBtGE to bathe, I'll be right over to collect for my filthy sinful bizness.
Well done. You're bookmarked.
Are you trying to grab my pie? Don't make me fork you too!
I'm glad I paid off my house five years ago.
~blink~ ~blink~
Did Breda just say she was gonna fork me?
Oh my! Is it hot in here?
I realized after I hit the "publish your comment" button just how naughty that sounded. =)
Well you could not pay your house payment and the goobberment will come in and rescue you. Take the money you should be using for the house payment and buy the M1A. You get your free cheese and your rifle to go with the whine.
I found is hysterical when Martin "your after me lucky charms" O'Malley crying about the poor citizens of Maryland losing their houses. Hey Martin, you think it might because you are taxing the living bejebus out of us.
the gummint wants to take yer $$ and give it to the financially inept because the financially inept get to vote.
if they can dumb down the schools some more there will be more of the financially inept next generation.. who will still be able to vote...
rinse, repeat.
