Too bad all the countries we've, the US, have lent money to over the years haven't paid us back. Seems odd that so many folks hate Americans and yet are willing to take our money. I think the media is causing a lot of our woes. Freaking everyone out is making folks sell low just to get what money they can. I'm also pissed that folks who made bad decisions are getting bailed out. I had folks tell both me and my daughter that we could get awesome houses if we did declared income. We both decided to buy what we could afford, think they'll pay off my mortgage and readjust it? Hell no, we get to pay the same and folks who mad the poor decisions will probably be getting their mortgages and interest lowered. Seems like if you work for a living these days and try to do the right thing you get screwed. Don't get me wrong. I love my country and wouldn't want to live anywhere else. But sometimes the people in charge just lose their minds and screw it up for the working class. Sorry...rant over.
