There is one word for what the Federal Govt. is doing RIGHT NOW. IT''''s called Socialism - look up the definition.
Taking "ownership" of the banks, loans, credit lines, Automakers. What is next?
Someone else in South America did this. Hugo Chavez - The only difference is, he just said it outright. I''''m "nationalizing" all of this. It''''s MINE now. The Feds are using FEAR tactics to take over this nation.
We the people..... are falling for it.
WAKE UP AMERICA!

Many of you are missing the point here. Lost Jobs = Credit Problems. People arent abusing their credit cards, they are trying to stay afloat. We lost our small business due to this economic crisis, dumped everything we had into it, just trying to keep it. Now, guess what- we have creditors at our door, threatening legal action and liens against our already mortgaged property because we used it as collateral. There was nothing we did WRONG. Now we are being forced into Bankruptcy just to keep our home. People need to stop casting judgement and worry about their own credit.

I got a way of avoiding bankruptcy. How about paying your bills and not buying things you cant afford.

tincup356: A lot of people are hurting and don''t need the BS. The election is over and we will all need to work together to repair the damage.

maybe if we have a country left next election, we can vote out all the democrats in congress...while we are at it we can vote out whats left of the republicans too, that will create about 650 new jobs that ordinary citizens could have and probably do a much better job than any of the greedy corrupt people doing them now.

poopnuts1111: Where do you get such rot? Stop your fear mongering and divisive dialogue right now for the good of the American people. The election is over. Give us a break.

when the people re elected those who voted for the sellout, they gave congress the right to steal everything we have and give it all away to the banks and mortgage companies and not to mention the Insurance companies, who just not too long ago were sticking their noses up and making excuses why they shouldn''t have to pay claims on the damage from hurricanes.In more than a few cases they just flat screwed the people and now after mismanaging those companies they expect us to pick up the tab for their high rolling...totally insane ,I say let them go under. they didn''t care about people that paid high premiums and then were refused on claims from storms.

As an American who has lost a home to foreclosure and has had to declare bankrupcy in the past due to medical reasons, I would like to remind those out there who are still able to work that the upper crust would do well to remember that it is the crumbs that hold the pie together. CBS Fan hit the nail on the head. We alone have the power to stop this foolishness if we could all put politics aside for one day and say enough is enough and show what the American people can still accomplish through it''s sheer will.

If your having credit problems and you can take advantage of either of these programs then DO SO IMMEDIATELY! The ONLY reason the lenders are willing to participate in them is because if they foreclose they know they won''t be able to sell your house. But in a few years when the housing market starts to recover, the lenders won''t bother with these programs, they will simply foreclose and take your house. So, do it right now!
