I read that Foreclosure is at an all time high, that it costs $ 50-60,000.00 to foreclose a home, why does the Government allow this to happen. A family's home is, for the most part, their American dream, their pusuit of happyness, it is discracfull that our elected officials have allowed this to happen. A family works, pays taxes, lives by the law and for that they are thanked with a eviction notice, their children suffer stress, loss of friends and depression from something they do not understand, if a parent throws a child out of the home, it is abuse, what is it to the government?.

 The law should change to forbid foreclosure from a job change, and to reduce interest and the payment to a percentage of the family's income and to freeze payments and interest if the breadwinner becomes ill and cannot work, with a doctor certification. If a family has to move to find work, then the house should be allowed to be sold and payments reduced, or just a payment of interest until the home can be sold.

 A family's home is their life, it is a place to go when your in trouble, it is a place for sunday dinner, a place for the holidays, it is your childs college fund and to save for retirement, it is a place to put things you collect, your personal museum and a few walls for happy memories. Your children know to find you there, that it is safe for them, and it is the first place they go when they are born.

 The home is your way of investing in America, you pay the taxes and recieve your tax refund there, so what can you expect from the government for the honesty, respect and the investment in your country? not much, just more struggle if you make a misstake or lose, or are forced to change your job. The American government has failed to say thank you to Americans for their investment, and unless you die for your country, there is no thanks at all. The United States

Government should show their appreciation for the very citizens that made it what it is today, and the one way for them to do that is, let those Americans who chose a home as their American dream and their pursuit of happyness be allowed to keep it and to continue to trust their government.

 The US government needs to say thank you............

And as bad as it is for a family to lose their home, you gotta love the governments priorities! How many thousands of people are losing their homes and the government can't lift a finger to help? But they sure can't wait to spend several BILLION dollars to help bail out a bank that was going bankrupt! How sad that people who have been working their @$$ off their whole lives can lose their homes because they lost their job to outsourcing, but rather than put any money towards helping decent people, Bush would rather ask for 100 billion dollars and a few hundred thousand productive members of society to send into Iraq!

Have the goverment make house payments for those who bought more house than they could afford or for those living beyond their means? Excellent! To be fair, let's have the government pay everyone's mortgage, their car payment, utilities and credit card bills!!!

That is not what it said, there is nothing between the lines to read here, the government does not pay anything, it is a freeze and or adjustment program, the home owner works it out with the financial institution. People buy homes within their income, if they get sick, forced to change jobs or are laid off then the program kicks in, but only to homeowners with children. I am sorry that you missunderstood....
