What can't you understand about the statement "One of course is to own that
home, so they
can live in that home....."? And yes, someone who makes a bad decision
should not be rewarded for their bad decision. It sends the wrong message
to everyone else, that you too may make bad decisions and someone will
"bail" you out as well. When we make bad decisons we should pay the price
for that bad decision. It applies to individuals and it applies to
companies....I am also not in favor of bailing out busiensses that get into
trouble because their President makes bad decisions, that resulted in the
company being in that kind of trouble. Does that make my position a little
clearer? |
