All these programs like CRA are socialist programs. they are well intended in an effort not to discriminate .... but the fact of the matter is not everyone qualifies to own a home or is responsible enough. Most of us achieved that "right" through hard work, maintaining good credit. acting responsible. That is available to everyone. There should not be government backed programs to assist a certain class of people. Yes they should enforce non discrimination and be sure it does not occur. But the individual should meet the same credit standards as everyone else to qualify.

We get in trouble when the government tries to legislate and back loans with lower standards than the other 90% that are issued. When those people have saved like the rest of us and have been responsible with credit ... they will get approved just like we did. Why should there be lower standards for some? They don't and can't appreciate as much as when they had to work hard to achieve it.

Just like a kid ... if you give them a car do they take care of it the same as when they had to save and have a part time job to go buy it? I know my first car was a piece of crap, but I loved it because I saved to buy it and it was mine.
