ACORN and the POOR

Let me repeat myself… I didn’t see anywhere in the constitution where it says that America is obligated to buy everyone a house.  Our Constitution does not read:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, [Don’t forget… give every damn person in this country a house whether they can afford it or not] do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Now, I can understand helping families out who have fallen into foreclosure.  I can understand helping families who had the economy go sour on them.  I can understand helping families who are in a pinch.  I would desire help if it were me.

I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND giving a home to someone who does bring in a paycheck but wants to live in a $100,000 to $200,000 home.   Or someone who makes $1,000 a month having a $1,500 mortgage.  And me having to foot the bill for it.  

Even worse, I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND if the government bails everyone out, why ACORN all of a sudden rises to the top as an entity most entitled to receive a boost rather than giving the AMERICAN TAX PAYER A BREAK WHEN THEY PAID FOR THE FUNDAMENTALLY MORALLY WRONG BAILOUT TO BEGIN WITH!  Why would congress even consider making the problem worse… has a politician ever heard of paying off their debts?  Instead they have to give, give, and give.  There is a point in which your house, your country, your fiscal responsibility is MORE IMPORTANT than someone getting a killer deal on a house. 

Again the constitution DOES NOT READ:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, [Don’t forget… give every damn person in this country a house whether they can afford it or not] do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Leave being poor out of it.  It has nothing to do with being poor.  It has to do with buying what you can afford and living within your means.

You shouldn’t be able to walk into Wal-Mart and just take things because you are poor.  You shouldn’t be able to just walk up to a car lot and take a car, the constitution doesn’t promise you one because everyone else has one.  You aren’t due one because hard times you went through, no one should be forced to buy you one because you are less fortunate.   Have people had to walk before? YES.  Are their other more affordable housing options for people who can’t afford a home?  YES!  They could buy a condo, rend an apartment, buy a prefabricated home, or buy a camper.  There are more options than just buying a house.   Other options are financially more within the reach of some people.

Now, if someone gives to the poor.  God bless them.   Should I have the right to decide if I want to be charitable? Yes.  Should I have the right to not give to those who choose not to work and improve their circumstance? Yes.  Do I have the right to decide who I desire to give to? YES.  Does the government have the right to make me pay for everyone else so there is EQULITY and so everything is FAIR?  NO!

This really seems like a fiber of the fairness doctrine. 

Obam, ACORN, and the Bailout Bill

 

Do you know who ACORN is?

 

Acorn is a perfect example of political correctness.  As described on its website: “ACORN is the nation’s largest grassroots community organization of low- and moderate-income people with over 400,000 member families organized into more than 1,200 neighborhood chapters in 110 cities across the country.  Since 1970, ACORN has been building community organizations that are committed to social and economic justice, and won victories on thousands of issues of concern to our members, through direct action, negotiation, legislative advocacy and voter participation.  ACORN helps those who have historically been locked out become powerful players in our democratic system.”

First of all… it is all the people who had to make sure that everything is “FAIR” and that there was “EQUALITY” that even those who can’t afford a home can get a loan for a home.

 

Isn’t that funny?  Those are the same people who can’t pay their mortgages and a direct reason why we are in the financial crisis we are in.  So ACORN through “negotiation” and “legislative advocacy” helped make it so you don’t have to make any money to qualify for a home because as stated in the preamble of our constitution….

 

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, [Don’t forget… we also give every damn person in this country a house whether they can aford it or not] do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

 

What gets my goat.  In the first draft of the bailout Bill.  ACORN was going to receive at least 20% of any profits earned from the government bailout. http://michellemalkin.com/2008/09/25/kill-the-bailout-more-acorn-funding/

 

Would it surprise you if Obama had tied to ACORN?
