And I'll be sweet, Bob will let me stay in the east wing of his mansion and let me drive his Porsche.[/QUOTE]
And stirts can stay at my house my beds big enough.
See .. that's why it dangerous to comment on individual caes .. and why I don't usually do it ...
Exactly the judgement that peopel here are making of homeless people ...
And the housing crash scenario you mention - yes it was a choice they made. If people were fuckin stupid enough to tick up big mortgages, that require most of their income to service at 5%, without thinking about how they would service the debt if interest rates went up, and the value of their house went down, then they deserve to suffer in their own stupidity.
That's exactly the scenario that could happen - and I wonder how many members of this forum could be in that position ...
(As I said, I own my own home mortgage-free ...)
"So if you meet me, have some sympathy, have some courtesy, have some taste ..."
Assumed motives? The so-called logic of the free market puts the motive for everything in MONEY ... put simply No Profit No Doee ...
That's exactly what the "free market" ideology is ... if you can't even argue a consistent capitalist/free market position then there is no point in talking about it ...
"So if you meet me, have some sympathy, have some courtesy, have some taste ..."
Geez .. just when I think you're getting there ...
I paid for it all ... got a job in the early 1980s that allowed me to save .. got together a deposit - organised BIG mortgage (big in terms of 22.5% interest rate) ... paid it all off out of my earnings .. along with a boat, two bikes ... I don't owe anyone diddley squat ... all earned and paid for ...
But I haven't forgotten where I came from and the people I met along the way and their struggles and issues ... that's one of the reasons why I work in Education - to help them get ahead, and to show them they don't have to buy into the system to do well - they can do well being who they are ...
My men students envy my bikes ... gives them a model of what they can achieve ..
