    Insurance companies don’t pay for damage caused by “Acts of God.” So that’s really a bad idea.

    Let’s see, you paid over 10 times your salary for your house at the peak of the market, you put down 10 percent on a ARM, You used your equity on a trip to Mexico, your job at the buggy wheel factory ended, sold your 401k in 2008, you had planned to finish high school some day, and the government is to blame for all your troubles. I’d vote Democratic if I was you.

    And then there were some of us who bought a house we could actually afford at a fixed rate. It wasnt that hard…

    Yes, friends, hold those homeowners accountable for their bad judgment. Oh, and just to be fair, send the crooked Wall Street bankers off to Guantanamo.

    No, the insurance covered it:

    I vaguely remember the viral video Kreniigh cites. It seems to have made more impact on Backderf than on those of us who don’t hate the middle class.
