I've always wondered how people who are just starting are miraculously able to afford a $300,000 house.

Well, of course, they went for the extremely risky loans that were being offered to them left and right, no income verification, interest only, variable rate, etc., when interest rates were really low.

So is it now OUR FAULT and we're supposed to "bail them out" or else it will affect the economy?

NONSENSE. They took and knew the risk. And recent 1980's history warned them what could happen, and they ignored it. I mean, am I the only one who opens a history book any more?

But then there will be a glut of overpriced houses on the market! So? It will be a temporary thing. Believe me, people who really CAN afford it will buy up those houses at discount prices and reap the rewards, AS THEY SHOULD.

Should people who live beyond their means expect sympathy from those of us who play by the rules, sacrifice, wait, and save up for things?

What do you think?

IF the Bible did not mention topics or practises that were considered sinful and punishable such as homosexuality and witchcraft, would you still consider them wrong? If the Bible did not bring up these and similar practises, would your reaction to them be different?

My personal position on these topics is NOT important, nor am I trying to change your thinking. I'm just curious.

I took my driving test a while ago and failed for a manual test but can not get a manual car to practise in. If I decided to just do the automatic test instead is that possible? Would I need to take a different theory test?

The car would not start. I just got that clicking sound you get when the battery is no putting out enough power. I had the battery checked; it tested bad. I replaced the battery and everything was fine. 2 days later, the check battery lamp came back on. I tightened the connectors and thelamp extenguished. 2 days later, it's back on and won't go off....The car starts and runs fine.

I am getting married soon....and I am appalled at the price of wedding photographers. My husband and I are both attorneys (i.e. make good salaries), but have no desire to spend thousands of dollars on a photographer! We just want photos to keep the memories, nothing fancy. We are having a small American style ceremony followed by a Chinese style banquet (I am Caucasian) and he is Chinese. We have kept the other costs very low while still planning a classy gathering (small guest list, the chinese banquet is quite inexpensive, etc). What have other savvy brides to be done to avoid these outrageous costs? (so far, the entire bill is coming up to about only $10500.) I considered having a friend who is an amateur photographer serve as our wedding photographer, which he offered to do for free, but I will probably pay him $250 anyways. I didn't know if this was a good idea...has anyone else done it? (we are in los angeles and getting married in santa barbara)

I think not. I have noticed that SOME people on here are either (1) well-meaning liberals who unknowingly support the socialist agenda (useful idiots), or (2) avowed socialists who deceitfully defend the socialist agenda and attack patriots like myself. I don't know which category each individual lib falls into, and I don't really care, but it is time to clear the air.
A review of facts supports the reality that Socialism is a very clear and present danger:

In the early 1900s, unrest in Europe brought thousands of socialists to America. Many held degrees in psychology, sociology and psychiatry (the behavioral sciences) and a number of them became university professors
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism_in_the_us
The socialists' first target was education, and they attacked with deceitful language. There were no badges or socialist labels; followers described themselves as "liberal," "progressive," and even "moderate." Words were the weapon of choice in this new war. By changing the meanings of words, socialists concealed their true purpose.
America's educational system began to decline with the introduction of Socialism. Lenin said: "Communism is socialism in a hurry." Socialism, therefore, is Communism by gradualism rather than by revolution.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenin


John Dewey, known as "the father of modern education," was an avowed socialist and the coauthor of the "Humanist Manifesto." The U.S. House Committee on Un-American Activities discovered that he belonged to 15 Marxist front organizations.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dewey


Norman Thomas, a socialist and member of the American Civil Liberties Union, boldly told the world: "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened."


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Thomas


Like so many frogs-in-the-pot, there are people in the USA who haven't yet noticed the heat rising incrementally. Those of us who see the light, are not going to stand idly by and be boiled

Socialism must be destroyed, once and for all.
