IS THERE AN HONEST POLITICIAN IN THE HOUSE

Our country faces numerous issues,., yet so many of them could be solved with just a little foresight. Unfortunately,personalized bobble heads, politicians are rewarded by getting reelected, not by offering viable long-term plans for the country.

A case in point is the current status of Wall Street reforms. The largest banks have only gotten bigger since the financial crisis began � so much for addressing the �too-big-to-fail" rumblings. Plus,custom bobblehead, Wall Street quickly reestablished its propensity to pay out large bonuses to their bankers for taking speculative risks. Derivatives,FC Barcelona Surely They Can�t Do It Again, which were a contributing factor in the real estate meltdown,personalized bobblehead, currently stand at ten times the planet�s gross domestic product. Someone is going to get burned when those take a fall,How To Find IPod Touch 4 Repair,personalized bobble heads,Beeragami, and the taxpayer is usually the one to take the hit.

Yes, there have been some small reforms. However, the bankers in Manhattan are smart enough that, when one door closes, they can always find another opening or loophole. The old problems have most definitely not been fixed.

In my own state of California, legislators just decided not to ban bribes to politicians. This was ostensibly because the state could not afford the $200,customize bobblehead,000 tab each year. The fact that paid fines would more than offset that cost seemed not to matter. Anyone with a double-digit IQ knows the real reason.

Since my business is mainly real estate � I�m a mortage note buyer � I have a particular interest in how that industry is affected by government policies,Carver Skateboards Makes You Feel Like Hitting The Wave,,. Let�s see how the elected officials have done so far:

1)Homebuyer tax credit just delayed any recovery and only served to run up the deficit,customized bobbleheads. FAIL!
2)The homeowner mortgage modification programs have used up a lot of media ink,custom bobbleheads, but helped few people. FAIL!
3)Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac,custom bobblehead, the government sponsored entities that buy loans, continue to need huge amounts of bailout money, and will cost taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars. FAIL!
4)The obvious necessity of requiring home buyers to put decent down payments of at least 10% when purchasing was put aside by the FHA raising their own down payment requirement from a measly 3% to a laughable 3,customized bobbleheads.5%,custom bobbleheads. FAIL,personalized bobblehead!

The housing market needs to go through a natural market recovery, which it can do if left alone by the Feds and the states. The real estate bubble took years to build, and it will take at least that many years in which to recover to something approaching normality.

If the government will stop butting in, the housing market will have a chance to catch its breath and stabilize. Community and regional banks will be more willing to lend as the volatility decreases. For those situations where banks prefer not to tread,customize bobblehead, owner financing can pick up some of the slack. When a mortgage note (often called a real estate note) is created, a much more transparent and honest transaction occurs. The former property owner also has the flexibility to keep the mortgage note or to sell the note to a mortgage buyer.

There are lots of viable solutions to the economy and housing market. The government could be part of the solution by making sure that market forces play out fairly without the big banks running roughshod over everyone else. So far, the bureaucrats have only made the problem worse,personalized bobbleheads, and Joe Six-pack has no clue to the long-term implications of government policies and programs. Will those few politicians who still have a brain and a heart for the country, please take control!
