House OKs Rescue for Homeowners, Freddie, Fannie

[bob4this]

Now that the collapse has occurred, the reform roadblock built by Senate Democrats in 2005 is unforgivable.

We now know that many of the senators who protected Fannie and Freddie, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Christopher Dodd, have received mind-boggling levels of financial support from them over the years.

The only thing that will help is

Joe-retail-homebuyer. If he can't qualify for a home, the one he's in, the one laying foreclosed, it's no help whatsoever.

It's a bandaid over a sucking chest wound.

Wow. semi-government operated business! Like always congress screws-up, and pay for it! We make, and they take! Time to do some major house cleaning!

Where in the name of God do they dig up these morons who "run" our government ?

Maxine "I want to Nationalize the Oil Companies" Waters aint seen the ball since the kickoff.

This bill does NOT "stabilize" the economy - it pumps BILLIONS more in inflation further destabilizing the already anemic dollar that is on life support.

I think it should be MANDATORY for all members of congress to watch, take, and pass a written test on the Money Masters DVD before being allowed to run for office.

The government is going to bail them out, and there's practically nothing taxpayers can do to stop it. They're "too big to fail" -- so much for the free market.

Some of those banker's club thieves are millionaires. "Greed is good". That's the way it goes...

[dustynbones]

I'm all for the bailout because it's akin to the Homestead Act, but I want regulations and investigations and jail time for the corrupt Politicians, Lobbyist & CEO's for allowing it to happen.

You obviously have no idea what a "bailout" does.

It devalues your currency because they print the money they use to "bailout".

Bear Sterns or Home Owners, in doesn't matter. Everyone needs to be accountable for their own actions.

I don't need a bail out and I don't want my savings to loose 1/2 their value just by the drop in the value of the dollar.

If you don't understand this simple math, then that's proof that the poor educational system is doing exactly what the elites wanted.

[dustynbones]

LOL!

Oh yes and you were educated where and you out of thin air made it all on your own all by yourself with absolutely no help? Come On?

So how do you feel about the US Homestead Act that happened back before the US Civil War, even the Territory of Texas was eventually annexed with land being sold cheap as hell, but you're not all right with that either? Or would you have been for that also?

Watching you delusional RP fanatics ignorance and insensitivity is hilarious and fun but dangerous.

The bill also provides all Credit card transactions to the IRS and finger print mortgage brokers.

As that is this bill and the blank check that Paulson is going to get will kill the dollar.

Got gold or silver?

[davidchenard]

The Congress and gov't are totally out of control. They were never granted these powers. This bill is illegal.

[firethefed]

This is the End... The U.S. is done..

100% BS
