I'M GLAD TO SEE A GROUP THAT IS STANDING UP FOR THIS ISSUE. WE NEED TO LET OUR VOICES BE HEARD, THAT THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY ARE READY TO PITCH IN AND MAKE THE PAYMENTS TO THE LENDERS OF THOSE WHO CANNOT KEEP UP WITH THEIR MORTGAGES. AS VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID, "BE PART OF THE DEAL". I SUGGEST THAT ANY INDIVIDUAL MAKING OVER $60,000/YR (GROSS, BEFORE DEDUCTIONS) SHOULD BE COMPELLED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL 10% OF THEIR INCOME TO A FUND SO AS TO BAIL OUT THIS MISERABLE MORTGAGE CRISIS. THE NEXT YEAR THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO CLAIM THAT AMOUNT ON THEIR TAXES AS A DEDUCTION. BY THAT TIME THE TAX RATES THAT BARACK HAS IN PLACE SHOULD HAVE GONE UP AND IT SHOULDN'T HURT THE U.S. REVENUE. EVERYONE HAS AN ABSOLUTE RIGHT TO OWN THEIR OWN HOME WHETHER THEY CAN AFFORD ONE OR NOT. WHEN OUR FOREFATHERS CAME TO THIS NATION, THEY IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THE NATIVE AMERICAN TRIBAL VILLAGES AND GOT ON TRIBAL ASSISTANCE, THEY WERE FED CORN AND FEASTED ON TURKEY WITH THE TRIBAL LEADERS. OUR FIRST THANKSGIVING. THEY WERE GIVEN FREE ACCESS TO THE MEDICINE MAN AND PROVIDED WITH THEIR OWN TEE PEE.
SOUNDS PRETTY STUPID DOESN'T IT, THE PROBLEM IS YOU LIBERALS WERE RIGHT WITH ME AT FIRST, THEN QUESTIONED THE $60,000 THRESH HOLD AFTER THINKING OF YOUR OWN INCOMES AND THEN I LOST YOU WHEN I STARTED TALKING ABOUT OUR FOREFATHERS. YOU FOLKS NEED HELP!
