Homeless fight back against foreclosures 26 Jan 09

by Dave on November 21, 2009

The current economic crisis in the US began in the housing sector. Banks have foreclosed on millions of houses throughout the country, and many now lie vacant. But one group of activists in Miami says the banks, which received billions in bailouts, must let the community use the homes. They are taking the law into their own hands and moving homeless families into empty properties. Al Jazeeras Nick Spicer reports

YES! I had the same thought. Tear down those signs and open the doors. Four walls no utilities is way better than sleeping outside. Let the banks drive around and keeps tabs on their assets. They can take of theirs while we take care of ours. GO ROBIN HOOD!

Look up farm subsidies and then join the conversation again. IF you don’t even understand the basics of how our govt. works, then why post? Farm subsidies are welfare. In order to have a discussion, you have to understand teh basices.

wazoome, what are you talking about? How does a person gain government welfare monies from farm programs that supplement his profits, by putting homeless families into foreclosures, which are owned by the banks, after the banks have collected billions of dollars to keep these houses foreclosed? Seriously, what is going on here? Do you work in one of those banks, wazoome?

And I’m assuming your pomposity is because you donate the surplus to help the homeless? Or are you simply full of yourself as one of the people who gains government welfare monies from farm programs that supplement your profits?

Tell that to the investors who lost fortunes in the Maddox fraud case. And then go look at your mother and ask her how she made you feel that women were prostitutes and useless eaters. Your mother must have inspired some wonderful hatred of women in you. Are you gay?

Let me turn your Anne Coulter theory of pull yourself up by the boostraps back on you. Plan to pay for the additional costs of social programs to support the homeless if you ensure that you create the problem. Don’t complain about it when your taxes grow higher and higher, because your ignorance has created joblessness in those who would prefer to work, but can’t due to overwhelming racial ignorance and intolerance. As you said, “Proper planning prevents poor performance.”
