When I first heard that the Obama regime was "exploring" the idea of forgiving mortgages that had foreclosed through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and also the mortgages that were upside down, my "think like a leftist" alarm switched on full alert. I can understand forgiving foreclosures, but upside down homes? Of course the first thought to come to mind was that Obama was going to try and buy votes for the November election. That would be one benefit at least in their minds, but I know there is something more sinister behind this line of thinking. Leftists do not do things on a whim. They are always scheming to further their agenda at all times.

     There is one true constant when contemplating the motives of the left. It is very simple, no matter how they try to spin their tyranny. The left is about power and control. They are relentless in their quest to control every aspect of the entire country and its people. Health care reform is code for government control of health care. Franklin Roosevelt started Social Security and said that once it was in place it would always be there, immune from repeal once people were dependent on it. Seventy years later and it still is here enslaving retirees to whatever the government wants to give them. Little by little, step be step, the left will take over our lives. You will need the government to literally survive someday if it is not stopped. Sadly, it is disguised as benevolent and innocuous and never as dependency.

     If the federal government ends up owning all of the foreclosed and upside down houses via Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, they are not going to get rid of them. They will keep them and use them as government housing. Imagine your neighborhood and the house next door forecloses or the owner is upside down. The mortgage was guaranteed through Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac which 90% or more mortgages nationwide are, and instantly you have section 8 housing in your neighborhood, possibly right next door to you. Another fun bonus to the whole idea is that your home value will drop through the floor with section 8 housing next door. Then of course your house will be upside down too. All too convenient for the leftists huh? It won't be framed this way though. It will be framed as helping the not so fortunate and that we should thank them for paying off all of the bad mortgages, to avert another Great Depression. 

     Don't get me wrong, I do not think badly of people who need temporary help. But like the old stigma of being on welfare, people should only want to use the help as long as they are desperate, not one day more. Secondly, government housing is notorious for fostering and festering a bad element and should not be forced on neighborhoods only because some owners foreclosed. Government housing should be sectioned off somewhere where it is not going to destroy property values. However, to get all housing to be government owned they will do what they can to destroy the values of all privately owned homes. Real estate as a profession would be dead except for the houses of the elite. You don't think the ruling class are going to live next to section 8'ers do you?

     Government housing is what the government wants for all of us. There was a near riot in Atlanta last week when people were lined up just to get an application for government housing. People fighting over government housing is not what America is all about. I am ashamed to have that going on in this country. Serfdom is the leftist goal for us, and total subservience will be the end result. Anyone that is going to use government housing will have restricted thermostats and every other "green" restriction built in to them. One day in the future every new couple wanting a house will have to go to the nearest Housing and Urban Development office to apply for one, then pay the filing fee, then stand in line for the entire day. If later on they want to upgrade or go larger, they will have to know somebody, or comply with some leftist pre-requisite, in other words beg or bribe.

     Obama and the rest of the left are showing their true faces in this regime and we all need to expose their tyranny to people that do not believe it. Do not let them rock the ignorant to sleep with fake promises only to take freedoms away from all of us. It will be a cold day in hell before I let a government bureaucrat tell me how hot or cold my house should be. The more they try to squeeze us the more we are going to escape their grasp and rebel. When the Republicans take back Congress and the Presidency, we must demand a roll back to Constitutional government of the Founders. Your house depends on it.
