And the enumerated power specified in the Constitution which allows this transaction is found in what paragraph?
I didn’t think so.
This is an interesting proposal for stemming the coming tide of foreclosures in non-subprime categories.
Although interest rates are falling, many homeowners who bought in the last five years cannot refinance because lenders (now) require a 80% LTV. When a home has lost 20% of its value, as many have, the owner can forgetabout refi.

Don’t do anything. They knew what the payment was going to be. If the value drops, just don’t borrow more until it comes up or the balance goes down.

An I’ve got cash and want to pick up a few homes cheap. And no there is not a damn thing wrong with that. My wife and i worked and saved and did without while others were living the high life and going into do. Now I want to set my kids up for life, and get the hell out of my way.

I am in this situation. It’s really fuggin ugly. No Mortgage company or broker will touch you, and the bank REALLY does not want to talk to you.

I am telling you....... It really f’ing sucks. And we bought with EQUITY already in place. JOY.
Just why is it Mr. Feldstein’s perogative to debase the savings of those Americans who live within their means to the advantage of those who don’t?
