Mortgage Woes Worsen

By Douglas V. Gibbs

I thought under Barack Obama we were going to see homes saved, and a massive program making sure that America got back on its feet. Instead, we are seeing late payments and foreclosures once again at a record high.

In fact, Obama's foreclosure prevention plan is helping very few. After all, how can a federal government being led by a bunch of buffoons administer it correctly, anyway?

None of Obama's programs and policies are working, and none of them will. The simple answer is that there are no good collective answers to individual problems. Government is not capable of taking care of the people. It is the individual that is best equipped to take care of himself. And if a home is lost, they move into an apartment, or back with family, or whatever, and then try again later. That is how a free society works.

Not one thing the Democrats have done has fixed anything, and big government solutions will never fix anything - because government is not the solution. Government is the problem.
