Upcoming Foreclosures

If seven ACORN cities are supporting & encouraging squatters, why can't I?

The stimulus bill included $31 million for ACORN. Seven so-called ACORN cities are supporting squatters whose homes are in foreclosure. They say, the banks took advantage of them, therefore, they should be able to just stay in their homes and not pay their mortgage. I wonder if they paid their property taxes or are they exempt from that also? For 30+ years we have had affirmative action in the workplace, schools, colleges and universities. If people dropped out of high school, did not get a GED and then believed that the government & banks must enable them to buy homes, why do I have to pay for it? I sacrifice a lot to pay my mortgage and to pay all my bills on time. Should I let my home go into foreclosure and just squat here? Do you think some of that government pork given to ACORN will protect me? How is it fair to tax those of us of play by the rules to pay for the mistakes, carelessness or irresponsibility of others? Is this reverse discrimation?

1. Of course it is racism--and obama supports racism--that is why he is only look out for his own--and allows us to be insulted by holder and his other black racists--like obama... some terrible leader --a dumb--a--and his cronies...no leaders--in DC ? sorry--intelligent whites need not apply--just picj up the tab--and work for all the free loading mooches...
2. yep. its all about the "victimes of the housing crisis." i hear that phrase every day on the news. what the hell??? victims??? you max out your credit card and buy more house than you can afford and youre a victim??? id say that just makes them an idiot. thats why america is failing. everyone wants the government to kiss up and fix everything for them. we need to start throwing people off of welfare, bogus disability, etc. and have some personal responsibility. unfortunately obama is going the other way and trying to increase it.
3. It is not the Mortgage defaulter's fault, they didn't ask to be thrown out of work, or taxed into the ground, or evicted from their homes! It's not even the Banks fault, because that's only how Banks can be expected to operate, when they are allowed to act like this, in such an exploitative economic climate! The blame lies exclusively at the feet of your own Government, who allowed the Banks to exploit the lack of regulation,and also exploit the honest desire of its own Citizens to own their own Homes. A Government that fails to protect its people from these ruthless, and immoral operators, is obviously not doing its job at all! And for people to blame the Victims of this Banking Debacle, for the whole mess is just falling for the same lies, from the same Charlatans, one more time. No wonder they think they can get away with such Piracy, If you are representative of the average American, and how far his deductive powers can take him! Must be like shooting fish in a Barrel! And if you are expecting "fair treatment" by the Government, (any Government) you are obviously so naive that you probably don't even realise that your natural enough feelings of outrage, and anger, are being hijacked, by yet another Administration that thrives on manipulation and lying to its people. Wake up and own the fact that the sh!t you can smell is coming directly from the People who are pointing at the turd in the first place!
4. Facts gone wild. http://www.factcheck.org/askfactcheck/does_the_stimulus_bill_include_a_52.html ACORN has not received any money from the stimulus bill. At least $31 million is better than the original $5.2 billion claim. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/18/nyregion/18foreclose.html?bl=&ei=5087&en=174b2d9fcca26876&ex=1235019600&pagewanted=all Cities do not support ACORN's efforts. They are acting on their own.
5. If you did since you are not a Barack Obama supporter nor a registered Democrat they'd have you living on the street in a New York minute
6. Good Morning! from the home town of Acorn. Yes, it is discrimination that has been ignored for 4 decades! Whether they are profit ,non-profit or not for profit are the categories of interest in any prosecution. Once again who's going to charge them? Those who are hired/elected for this purpose are failing to even look & will do every thing they can to avoid even looking , let alone prosecute. This is the point : to force action!
