[quote=jpinpb]joe – if people want to default and walk, fine But as a renting taxpayer who did not buy a house that I could not afford during the bubble, I do not feel it is my burden to save banks or people losing their homes. They can go back to renting. They will not be homeless. This is the issue I have. I also do not think they are entitled to live for free for months/years.[/quote]
jpinpb – You’re putting words in my post if that’s what you read from my message above. No where did I state I support bailing out banks (which I hate) or giving people free rent or houses or even helping they save their house with our tax dollars (which I’m a payer of too).
If folks want to strategically default, so be it…they move out and rent, move in with family. That’s that. No need to say, “oh, you’re an evil person, etc etc etc…”
