		<description>I see a lot self righteous people here complaining about people whose loans are going up and getting bailed out and how it is costing them money, first off not many are going to get bailed out secondly what was there teaser rate I know mine was 9.9% most of you would pee yourselves and pass out if you were offered a rate was that high.

But if your credit took a hit due to a divorce or sickness you took it on a 2-28 knowing you could make these payments and build your credit back up so when the time came to refinance you could get a better rate.

But the banks changed the rules along the way they dropped just about all of the programs they used to get these people into there homes to begin with and now even if your credit has risen and payments to every one of your creditors has been made on time you cannot get refinancing so you are at the Mercy of a bank who will raise your percentage rate 2 points every 6 months until it reaches its peak and that is what is happening here.

So please do not think that a lot of these people have low mortgages at your expense because the majority of their percentage rate are much higher than you could imagine.

I&#039;m currently at 11.7 percent luckily I can afford it but trust me if I couldn&#039;t in the months that it would take the bank to foreclose I would gut this house right down to the copper electrical wire and sit back and relax while watching the watching the wall studs burn in the fire place.

Let the banks repo a few thousand homes in that condition just to see how far their greed will get them.</description>

		<description>Re:  Flim Flam; January 23, 2008

Garnish wages for a lifetime?  Forceed organ harvesting?  I think that bad financial decisions should not result in a lifetime sentence for anyone.  And, organ harvesting because some people aren&#039;t financially savvy or possible greedy?  What happened to Flim Flam in his/her childhood.  Either Flim Flam is alcoholic and/or sociopathic with a psychopathical edge.  What a cruel, cruel, person.</description>

		<description>The problem is a lack of personal responsibility.  The bankruptcy code still allows the defaulters to walk away from their debts.  What we need is a change to the law to allow for creditors to garnish wages for the LIFETIME of the debtor deadbeats that are defaulting.  Forced organ harvesting might also help the deadbeats to meet their contractual obligations.</description>

		<description>Does this not allow the &quot;bank&quot; holding the note not record a the unknown loss?

Is the property value changed ?

Why not surrounding land owners press for property tax reduction across the board!

Force the flipper/investors into a different loan packages from home owners.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think that the people with subprime credits are stupid, but it is true, that they should be aware of the fact, that there was the possibility mortgage rates will risind and the value of their house will decrease, moreover if they earning was already very low at that time. That&#039;s why I cannot agree with mortgage freezing, because it is not fair to other home owners.

Beside that, experts says, that the mortgage freezing will do nothing to help those people who are currently iliquid and are facing foreclosure auctions.</description>

		<description>I can understand what everyone here is saying but have they taken into consideration the people who are responsible and due to life&#039;s circumstances have ended up in a negative situation.  ie: illness, returning to school to better their financial situation.  I have a friend who returned to nursing school and had to survive on one income during school which created a financial burden. After graduating she wanted to refinance to a fixed rate. Now that the housing market has dropped she can not refinance due to the decreased value of the home. There are many people that land in situations that they don&#039;t expect to be in.  People should not judge unless they know the entire situation. mbhunter writes &quot;This is just subsidizing the stupid and the greedy&quot;. NOT ALL PEOPLE ARE STUPID AND GREEDY, but some people are extremely ignorant.</description>
