I'm not the only one...

So I saw this yesterday and felt a little justification for my feelings, and the reasons against it seem much stronger than those for it. Basically this proposed bill says if you don't pay your mortgage you get a rate reduction, if you still don't pay it don't worry the Government will bail you out. Please note in this bill there is no distinction between CAN'T and WON'T- after all how could they really tell? And I too don't want to pay someone else's mortgage yet- I don't even have my own!

On the plus side I like the idea that Obama's attorney general going after UBS looking into up to 52 thousand citizens with illegal offshore accounts and not reporting to the IRS, shame shame shame. I'd like to see those names released, and fines and jail time for all. Its time we stopped cracking down on the teflon elite who get away with this crap- Considering UBS paid 780 million to try and settle, you know there are probably billions stored away there- billions and therefore many millions of unpaid taxes. Cheats annoy me- especially those who do it not because its necessary- but because it could be done.

Enough of the angry, have a great weekend everyone!
