SD Jarhead Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Welcome to the USSA- The United Socialist States of America. It is sickening that we are at this point and a bill like this has to be signed.
PastaJoe Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Maybe The Doodlebops are on at 6:30am in Washington, so he's up anyways.
erynthered Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Maybe The Doodlebops are on at 6:30am in Washington, so he's up anyways. Just curious, were you for this bailout, Joe?
PastaJoe Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Just curious, were you for this bailout, Joe? There are no easy or cheap solutions at this point, and the continued foreclosure of houses would only make the situation worse, so given the alternatives I would say I support it. Most of it is renegotiating and backing loans, not outright bailouts, and hopefully the increased regulations will prevent a similar situation in the future. The states are being given $4 billion to buy up and fix foreclosed houses. That's less then we spend in Iraq in a month. I'd rather help my neighbor keep their house than see it go empty and reduce my house's value.
