Fuck consumer confidence. Right in its unfounded ear.
Foreclosures outnumber homes sold in some states.
Way to be brave.
Stop being confident, you taints! I bought a house I could afford, on a fixed interest rate, and people are talking about using my tax money to bail them and their banks out.
Why bail out college educated people who accepted terms they understood?
Why not bail out people with huge student loans instead? People take those out when they are 17 or 18, and before they have a college education. After all,some countries have free college education. What country gives you a free McMansions?
