Then we were at the community pool and heard people talking about how they couldn't believe they were able to buy a new home after being on section 8 housing.
If you recall, it was back in the 90's when a certain attorney general was threatening lenders to force them to give mortgages to those you just describe.

Still in that "majority" fame of mind? Recent elections results should have given you a clue that Libertarians were not the "majority" because they were too obtuse. I state my mind, because I am free to do so, you can choose to read them or not- but will not bully me into silence.

Many facts posted are very correct and informative -as a previous loan manager, it was pushed to do loans I didn't always agree with. I walked away from that in '06 and now review alot of mtg FRAUD. In any case, foreclosures bring in no revenue and depreciate the city by all counts. NOT a good thing to have regardless of who was at fault- the problem is here, and needs to get fixed. Tampabay leading in more empty houses is not good.
