don't make those bad decisions, don't pay too much for over valued
property, don't buy what you can't afford, etc.

You ignore the people who were *told* they could afford the houses
they bought. People with a duty to be diligent--brokers, financiers,
investment houses, all assured them that they deserved a good house
and by heck they could afford one because they were given them a real
bargain.

Basically, it comes down to common sense, if you can't afford the house,
don't buy it... yet ...

But if you're assured that you can afford it, who is the real culprit
here?

Ah yes, the old Liar Loans...

The only "qualification" for the loan was could you fog a mirror? If you
were breathing, you qualified.

Talk about morons!

Most people, when shopping, never get to the checkout with more in their
basket -- quite amazing when you consider the morons who bought homes!

The real question here, is why was there a big bubble of morons
purchasing homes? Is it possible they never heard, "BUYER BEWARE?"

roflol ... you just gotta love morons, it is always someone elses fault
they did something stupid ... next, I expect a cop to walk up to one and
ask them, "Why did u just shoot that person?" And, they reply, "He just
got in the way of my bullet -- it wasn't my fault!"
