The American dream is to be able to AFFORD a house...

That means putting down enough to keep the payments affordable and
buying only enough house that you actually need. Somewhere, getting a bigger house was equated to having more wealth.

Where is it written that a "homeowner" is GUARANTEED a profit? Or if his equity becomes negative, that a contract can be changed so the "homeowner" feels wealthy?

This idea by Uncle Ben is the dumbest thing I've heard of. Maybe because it's an election year, the dumbest ideas just keep coming...]]> Sun, 09 Mar 2008 22:31:45 -0400

The failure of regulators at the federal level (FDIC, the Fed, banking regulators, etc) to end the practice of obtaining a mortgage without a REAL down payment. Both Democrat and Republican administrations for years gave whole hearted support for "new" and "creative" ways of increasing homeownership rates, through ever lower required down payments. When you have no equity, you have NO room for error. Until banks and wall street rocket scientists are made to put their "off-balance sheet" loans and other gimmicks back on "the balance sheet", nothing will improve.

The fact that Republicans, who always called themselves "free market capitalists" are now acting like Democrats by trying to bail out people who should never have been a "homeowner" is reason enough to never vote Republican again....
