NO. Point was, I am doing everything I can to pay down debt and get away from credit. I only had a $50,000 mortgage to start with. When other people making the same money I was were taking out loans for $200,000 or more for homes, I bought within my means. Which is why when things got hard, it took VERY short money to settle up. I'm not pointing fingers at all. Just sharing my own situation. If you're debt free stay that way, that's my only point. This entire debt crisis is about CREDIT, and the irresponsible use of it. |

Of course having a managable debt, whether it be mortgage or a conservative credit card debt is indeed acceptable, and many people need to do that to live and feed their families. But this country is FAR too comfortable with living on credit and continuing to buy bullshit that they can't afford. The financial sector was largely responsible for this before the crash, since institutions were lending money that they did not have (based on derivatives, loans against loans, and other related horseshit) to people who never should have qualified for anything close to what they were approved for. The boil finally burst and now many of us are covered in pus. This. |

Mislead about their abilities to repay the outstanding loans offered at the time just so big banks could make a larger profit. this cannot be ignored. |

The boil finally burst and now many of us are covered in pus. but i work at Dunkin Donuts and want a 650K house, an Escalade with rims, 2 boats, a jet-ski, snowmobile, an iPOD, iPAD, and a 70 inch LCD tv with all inclusive cable to show how my balls are the size of grapefruits and as smooth as eggs. oh and little Johnny needs a 360, PS3, Wii, DS, and every new game so he'll stop screaming and fit in. i can't cook at home either, i need to eat at Olive Garden every night. i also need to smoke 2 packs a day, drink 17 Starbucks coffees, and only eat organic. Sadly there's so many like this. Also, if I ever see an Escalade at a boat launch, I fish a different lake. |
