Participant[quote=pri_dk][quote=urbanrealtor]I want a kickback (in addition to commission and a commission on the kickback) from the govt for every deal I close.
Also, I want a pony.
This is why I am a liberal.[/quote]
“The real estate industry, including the powerful 1.1 million-member National Association of Realtors, wants Congress to extend the credit at least through next summer. ”
Question for urbanrealtor:
So, are you going to stop paying your NAR dues?
I’m sure you at least wrote the NAR expressing your outrage over their support of this.[/quote]
Honestly, I don’t have rage at this.
It seems like a dumb idea but not so much it actually angers me.
I do actually believe in government intervention in the economy.
I think the success of China in the last 15 years is an example of how beneficial government interference can be when coupled with capitalist initiative.
And I don’t think it is mutually exclusive with democracy.
Further, if the $15k measure succeeds, while being a dumb idea, it is in my material self interest.
I care more about putting food on the table than making a point.Oh, and thats part of why I am still a member of NAR.
It really is a practical necessity.Participant[quote=patb][quote=urbanrealtor]I want a kickback (in addition to commission and a commission on the kickback) from the govt for every deal I close.

And the original sponsor of this is?
Senator Johnn Isakson of Georgia (Republican).
See, Liberals live in the Reality-Based community, where we check
facts and look up things, while you are like most modern conservatives,
shrieking like a monkey and hurling feces at passers-by.[/quote]Thank you for that.
My coffee came out of my nose.I actually am a liberal and I thought it was a fun joke at myself.
Thank you though.
YOu did make it better.Participant[quote=patb][quote=urbanrealtor]I want a kickback (in addition to commission and a commission on the kickback) from the govt for every deal I close.

Thats about right.
He raises a few good points and questions and then keeps going on for like 2 hours.He is no John Stewart.
Stewart engages his opponents.
Moore just kind of screams in an echo chamber or chants against his opponents.
Not my favorite pundit or activist.ParticipantWhile I find his stuff entertaining (I am a liberal and he is funny) I think that the NY Times referred to him as a bumper sticker masquerading as political ideology (or something similar).

I can’t trust people in this market and this thread validates it.[/quote]
In selecting vendors (agents, lenders, contractors) you should really shop and ask for references.
It pays.
