WTH is wrong with people? Why are we rewarding stupidity? I bought my first home almost 2 years ago at the height of the real estate boom (I should have waited 6 months) and even though I wish i knew then what I know now I still wasn't stupid, ignorant, or naive enough to get a loan that wasn't a fixed loan. People bought more than they could afford just to "keep up with the Joneses" and now part of my taxes are going to bail them out an allow them to keep their homes. Its just plain wrong. I realize taxes are a "necessary evil" and I don't mind paying taxes that maintain our infrastructure, national defense, etc. but the wastefulness and negligence of Congress & government agencies really makes paying taxes painful for me. I really wish I could stop paying them (and not go to jail) until some accountability is integrated into government spending. GAH!! WTH is wrong with people? Why are we rewarding stupidity?

In fact, I've been ranting to Mr. AOW for weeks about this. In the vast majority of these cases, the signers on the dotted line should be held accountable. We've really proceeded apace to become the Nanny State! Well, I knew that this socialistic bail-out was coming. In fact, I’ve been ranting to Mr. AOW for weeks about this.
