The Road to One America - Cleveland Home Foreclosures

John Edwards visits Cleveland, Ohio. The city has suffered a wave of home foreclosures in recent months as a result of a combination of job losses, predatory lenders and falling home prices. Predatory lenders and mortgage brokers have targeted the Mount Pleasant neighborhood, like many other working-class and predominantly African-American neighborhoods across the country.

Cleveland is loaded with preditory lenders. The city has been approached with the suggestion of having the homeless tradesmen in the shelters rehab buildings. City government isn't interested. Glad I'm out of there.

Why isn't Warren Buffet bailing them out? He whines to Hillary that he doesn't pay enough in personal income taxes. Wealthy liberals, help these people with YOUR check book.

My opinion, Who cares! Our society does'nt care about anyone. Get out there & spend spend spend & live on borrowed money & borrowed time.....

More and more ...poor me..i don't know what I'm doing. These people are LOSERS. Only a fool would let this happen to them. Our nanny state socialist thinking has allowed these LOSERS to breed and create more LOSERS who are unable to support themselves. Let them starve to death and let natural selection take care of the rest.

Since we're asking questions why are banks lending broke people with bad credit that can't afford lawyers money to begin with? Therin lies the problem. Folks are out of control on BOTH sides of the desk.

"These people" may still believe that lenders are honest, which they should be, and "these people" are seeking second mortgages, which means they are probably in dire financial straights to begin with and lawyers are a luxury when you are broke. Duh.

Why is it everywhere I go on YouTube, there's this comment about an average person's view of Mitt Romney?! How about Mitt's kids' "view" of the candidate strapping the family dog to the luggage rack of the station wagon -- and leaving the poor animal there until he crapped down the back of the car? Google that folks, I'm not making it up!
