How can anyone be happy with Obama?

[vemados]

Today I found out I lost the house I have had a contract on since last April (2009). I was attempting to buy a house in short sale, the house went into foreclosure and so I have been waiting a long time for the banks/FDIC to get it all together so we could close. Well, Obama signed in a new law (July 2nd, 2009) forcing people who have had their homes foreclosed to return to their homes and in turn forcing the banks to refinance. The alternative for these people is to file bankruptcy (which some have already done, and others have found a solution to just barely stay financially afloat). This may sound like a great solution for all the unfortunate families who have recently lost their homes, but in truth it is a disaster. Who is to say these people can afford or even want to move back?
In my case, the house I was attempting to buy was owned by a family who were over their head with a double mortgage. They were forced to foreclose and have since downsized and purchased a new home. Now with the new law they will be forced to return to their previous home or face bankruptcy. They will have to find a way to sell their current home, which of course is very difficult in today's economy. The previous owners do not want to return, they can’t afford the move, nor the wait to sell their current home, which they probably won’t even be able to sell in today's economy.
As for me. I am losing close to $2,500 in money spent on contracts etc. I of course have no rights and will not be able to recoup my losses.
Thousands of foreclosed homeowners are dealing with similar situations. For some this may be a blessing if they are still searching for a new living situation. Of course this doesn't teach any lessons other than to live beyond your means and don't worry about the consequences because the government will bail you out. Be financially responsible and get screwed. For others they are facing difficult decisions deciding what to do with their new lives and the homes they are being forced to return to. Then for all the buyers, who have been in contract to buy these foreclosed homes and begin to repair the hole in the housing industry. Well they are all SOL and out a lot of money, like me. Believe me, with my meager salary that is cut in half by taxes, $2,500 is SUBSTANTIAL!!!
So I ask you, where are our freedoms going and why do we just let the government take them? How does this stimulate an economy? All I can foresee is a rise in bankruptcy and a lot of people losing money.
Of course there are tons of other issues we can discuss that provide similar examples our diminishing freedoms, and the socialization of our country. Such as, when 80% of the general population is happy with the health care system yet government chooses to change it, control it, and force their plan down our throats.
How can anyone be happy with Obama?

this is the change that you all voted for

[delron]

They are delusional puppies who think he is their pack leader.

[jarel]

shorten your damn question! nobody's going to read all that mumbo jumbo.

[delrico]

Very easily. His approval rating is at 60%.

[ezri]

Easy...he's doing what he was elected to do.


No one will read the rant.

Some win, some lose. I guess you and your friends lose. Makes you wish there were more than 1 president. If 1 can't help you maybe a different one will?

When I look at that, what comes to mind is that you're just another pathetic, out-of-touch-with-reality, and badly educated Republican trying to take a stab at the Democrats. First, nobody wants to read long sh*tty rants like that. Second, Obama is president and his party controls all aspects of government, leaving you a minority so stfu ok? :)

We do what we want and you people stay out of our way b.c it's for your own good for us to take control and end the failing trickle-down policies.

I have noticed that you haven't even made your rant into a well organized essay...it's just a bunch of ---- that nobody wants to read (sorry).

And if you think I'm a typical arrogant Democrat that believes the government should be expanded, then you're right fool! The government is the **** and for people like you, we NEED to expand it b.c APPARENTLY, you can't control it when we're not in there taking over lol

So don't rant...ask your question so that my answer to it can be "It's easy. He's the President, and he's on-route to fixing the economy among other issues." :/
