Don’t you know that people in expensive areas have a right to government programs to help them live there, paid for by all the poor saps living in the Midwest?

….Bailing out the financial system was the equivalent of bailing out everybody. The bailout of the financial system was necessary….[/quote]
A lot of people believe that creating or sustaining asset bubbles is a victimless crime.
In fact, inflating the price of any good benefits the seller at the expense of the buyer. It’s a tax on buyers and a subsidy for sellers. Are homeowners the most deserving recipients of subsidies in our society, with those owning the most expensive homes being the most deserving of the deserving? And are home buyers the ones who most need to have additional money taken from them?
It’s an interesting theory that this system of implicit taxes and subsidies for home buyers and sellers is necessary for a healthy economy. It doesn’t make any economic sense, but it is interesting.

Participant[quote=sdrealtor]I know several doctors that work internationally and spend time in those higher ranked systems. They wouldnt agree with our system not having the best medical care in the world. Alot of it has to do with the lifestyle people live in these countries. Many of these countries citizen’s subsist on diets with far more fresh fish, fruits and vegatables than we eat in the US. They also lead more active lives than we do…. [/quote]
Yes, I pity those French “subsisting” on their terrible diets.
We know how to do things right here in the US of A: Eat too much food, especially unhealthy food; work such long hours that we can barely exercise or recreate; and then spend a fortune on trying to fix the inevitable problems. I can see how US doctors who financially benefit from all this would see our health system as better than the French, or the Japanese, or a host of others.

February 13, 2011 at 1:21 PM in reply to: Short Sale Realtor in collusion with buyer, is it legal. #666513Participant[quote=Doooh]So Realtors are the overpaid equivalent of a Radio show host who says “The next caller to dial 570-1007 is the winner.” You guys are jokers.
I’m in the wrong business if this is the case.
With cash in hand what the hell am I doing acting like a your regular Joe SixPack buyer. Waiting for MLS listings is for the birds. I’ll go out and find my own delinquent seller. This games rigged and I’m out to win now.[/quote]
You have it dead right, Doooh.
We all know the banks are getting bailed out on these bad loans by the taxpayers. And here are scams designed to increase these public losses for private gain. It may not be illegal, but it is absolutely immoral. I wouldn’t do business with a so-called professional who thinks this is acceptable conduct.
What is most unsettling is that some RE professionals consider this normal. We all suspected that these bailouts were an excuse to send an enormous amount of money to support slimy people engaging in slimy behavior. Now we can see one more piece of evidence.
