Ok I will play.
Let’s look at the wildfires here in San Diego when president Bush with a flip of his wrist helped those “poor homeowners” rebuild. It was the humane thing to do right?
Or was it? Those homes 500k+ homes are built right back where they were….in the same wildfire prone area? Now let’s look at a single home lost to a fire that was not bailed out by the government. Why is that persons loss ok? Ok stay with me here because if you answered that it is not and he should be bailed out also….then you have made the leap that it is the governments job is to fix everyone’s problem. So my Leakey water pipes should be replaced by the government. How about my engine gasket? At this point you may see that I am leading you down the rabbit hole and say to yourself….” That is for the qualified government people to decide.”….. what happens the one time that the government makes a “wrong” choice? Who sets that straight?
I sat on then sidelines while the madness of greed in real estate took me out of this market for 7 years!!!!!!!! All the while the criminal homeowners who lied on their application were bailed out by every government program imaginable. WITH MY MONEY. And yes I am still PISSED about it. I spoke with one of those assholes today, he was wondering if he could get a refi even though he did a “strategic default” a couple of year ago on his “rental Property”(true Story)
I WILL DECIDE HOW I SPEND MY CHARITY MONEY. IF YOU FEEL SORRY FOR THESE PEOPLE GET OFF YOUR ASS AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT YOURSELF!!!!!!!!! But do not try and foist your morales on to me. In fact we may even have the same morales…..but I will never force you to give to charity.
By the way none of this is possible without the Federal Reserve. All of the “humanitarian” missions are pulled with off with currency that is indebting our kids. It is enslaving us. Do you really want to spend millions of dollars fronting Uganda?
A wise man once said that you are a slave to who you owe debt. We are all slaves because of ignorant thinking like yours.
I am tired of hypocrites who won’t change their lives to help the less fortunate but want everyone else to change their life. THERE IS MISERY EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD. PICK A PLACE A MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE. But do not tell me how to live my life.
By the way, the reason that the corporations are running roughshod over this country is because the government is so Frigging big that it is being bought off by special interest of the corporations. The answer is smaller more accountable government.
By the way if you doubt who is right on this topic do a little experiment. Go to YouTube and look up what all the other politicians were saying in 2002. Look up Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, all those people who said it was the governments job for every American to own a home…..Then look up Ron Paul. He tells us what will happen and it’s causes. So I would take his judgement over anyone else’s. that is what makes him Presidential. His courage to say the unpopular thing……and then to be proven right. that makes him Presidential. Did you know that he has over 110,000 individual donors to his campaign. Mitt has 24000 but has raised 5 times as much. He has raised more from the active military then all other candidates combined yet you think he I’s beholder to the corporation?
His popularity has only gained. Look around maybe you will learn something. Maybe if you have an open mind you too can be part of the Solution instead of being part of the problem.
