Yes, why not let the income and assets of tens of millions of families collapse so you damned fascists can watch them suffer. Great idea, Tom. Great.
How are we letting the income and assets of tens of millions of families collapse ?
By failing to take inexpensive and effective measures to arrest the foreclosure crisis and positively impact the employment situation.
People make poor decisions and shit happens... get over it. Rewarding poor decision making only leads to more poor decision making.
The people who made poor decisions lost their homes, Soggy. The banks now own them. The banks don't want them.
Yup.And that's unfortunate indeed... taking taxpayer $$ and buying back the homes then turning around and selling them back to the same people at low prices just starts the cycle again. It's like taking a kid who works at Starbucks, who buys a Lexus, can't make the note and the car gets repossessed, so his parents cosign a loan so he can buy an Infinity.

The plan does not include additional taxpayer money and does not sell the homes back to the same people.

That's absurd. No self-respecting Barista would drive anything but a Prius. Or a Leaf. Or dad's old Humvee

I think a lot of times too, people don't understand the true cost of home ownership... its more than making the note. There's insurance, maintenance, taxes, etc.... and I'll just say it.. some people cannot afford to own a home.
It isn't bad, it isn't good.. it just is.

So, am I to assume that the banks are just going to give the homes away?

Now there's an oxymoron if there ever was one!
God help us when the federal government gets into the real estate home flipping business.
God help us when the federal government gets into the real estate home flipping business. Politicians can't even run a simple post office without stealing stamps. How did LBJ's great society urban renewal work out?
Yeah...It's Clemenza and Tessio, rather than Don Vito himself.God help us when the federal government gets into the real estate home flipping business.
This isn't the federal government.
Affordable for whom? Certainly not the taxpayers who will be footing the bill.
The problem began with do-gooders claiming that they could fix the "affordable housing problem" in the first place.Affordable for whom? Certainly not the taxpayers who will be footing the bill.
Much better to let those houses deteriorate to the point that they need to be condemned and torn down. Many municipalities have already reached that point. Tearing them down is the only way to increase the value of other homes by reducing the total number of homes. If nobody is occupying these homes, it means nobody is paying property taxes, and since those homes just become a sore spot to the community, it reduces the value of everyone else's homes which leads to even less revenue to the municipality. But keep up with that tunnel vision on how not to fix anything.

Like I said...The arsonists are now trying to convince you that they're the best ones to put out the fire.

I'm soooo relieved.
Someone's lying and you don't give a shit? But of course! What's a little lie in pursuit of your ideology?Yeah...It's Clemenza and Tessio, rather than Don Vito himself.God help us when the federal government gets into the real estate home flipping business.

Funny, if the banks didn't want those houses, perhaps they should have made a better job of vetting the people to whom they were loaning money.
