You'll get to rent land - maybe.

Who’s this Wall street guy and who appointed him to warn us about anything?

Did Wall Street warn us about pumping 100’s of billions of dollars into TARP relief?

Banks should be bending over backwards to help fix the mortgage lending crisis. It’s better to get 65% of your money back then 20% — oh, that’s right, they think the tax payers should foot that bill because they’re too big to fail.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

This is such a terrible idea, i can’t believe any sane person would support it.

[microgood]

The fact that anyone would even consider such theft shows how little is left of this once great republic.

I wonder what the IRS would do with this since if banks forgive part of a home loan that is taxable income to the home owner.

They’ll take it over and trade to China for our debt.

“Firms are warning that a governmental action to seize private property to reduce its value could throw the entire housing market off kilter.”

Can’t have financial markets thrown off kilter now. Kind of like that TARP thingy did.

I don’t agree with using emminent domain for this. But I can’t say I’d lose much sleep over it if it were to happen. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch.

1. If property owner in arrears on property taxes, local jurisdiction can lien or take said property.

2. If oproperty owner in arrears on mortgage loan, local jurisdiction is NOT a party to that contract, so has no business meddling in my opinion.

3. Re 2. above, it must be they claim the jurisdiction can take property under eminent domain, per Kelo decision whereby city/jurisdiction can take property for anything they want, to get more property taxes, to change uses, to remediate so called blight, which is often completely abused.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Next they'll decide they can use eminent domain on bank accounts.

[HiTech RedNeck]

I’d never heard of eminent domain being used for this before.

Big Banks vs Big Government: And we lose.

Means we got more bailouts and higher taxes coming

"Lenders are going to react and underwrite defensively to protect themselves,”

Which implies that they are not protecting themselves now. Why would an entity operate against their own interests?

The Community Reinvestment Act.

The Kenyan must go.

New York Sues Three Banks Over MERS Database

FTA: "The mortgage industry created MERS to allow financial institutions to evade county recording fees,”

Is this is how they will finance their land grab?

The Kenyan must go.

The slippery slope is turning into a sheer drop.
