I oppose the proposed bailout plan because we have not even addressed the root of this problem. We hear deregulation but that is not good enough.
I believe someone needs to address the' PONZI Scheme' that was created all the way back to 1999, during the Republican Congress.
The largest 'private' bankruptcy, dubbed by Federal Prosecutors in Columbus Ohio 'larger than Enron' with National Century Financial Enterprises, Inc.(NCFE). The CEO and VP Executive, who by chance was an ex-employee of HCA/TN and Richard Rainwater, GW Bush's ex-partner. This was a healthcare dumping ground for those entities affected by Welfare Reform.
Where is the 700 Billion going? To JP Morgan? It was in 2007, after all, when JPMorgan Chase financed Richard Rainwater’s REIT,Crescent (CEI) sale, just before the Real Estate bust; which all experts thought was a loser.
Then, in 2003, who or what was involved in the " Administration-wide effort to bring new tools and resources to would-be homeowners.” ?
In 2003? NewTools? New Resources?

National Homeownership Month, 2003
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
Homeownership is more than just a symbol of the American Dream; it is an important part of our way of life. Core American values of individuality, thrift, responsibility, and self-reliance are embodied in homeownership. I am committed to helping more families know the security and sense of pride that comes with owning a home.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development is leading an Administration-wide effort to bring new tools and resources to would-be homeowners. We are providing financial assistance to qualified families through the American Dream Downpayment Fund, funding educational programs that stress financial literacy, and offering a compassionate hand to those who dream of moving from subsidized housing into homeownership. And through the Self-Help Homeownership Opportunity Program, my Administration partners with nonprofit organizations that offer homeownership oppor-tunities to families willing to contribute their skills and labor to help build a home of their own. We are also proposing ways to make it easier to shop for a mortgage and to make mortgages available to more families through the Federal Housing Administration.
Today, the United States is fortunate in that our homeownership rate is at an all-time high, and low interest rates continue to encourage millions of Americans to become first-time homeowners. Although a record number of Americans own their own homes, we continue to see a gap between the homeowner-ship rates of minorities and nonminorities. By a significant margin, minority families are less likely to own their own homes. Therefore, I have called upon the entire housing industry to join with my Administration to expand minority homeownership across the Nation. Our goal is to help at least 5.5 million minority families become homeowners by the end of this decade, and our Blueprint for the American Dream Partnership is taking bold steps to make this a reality.
