If this bail outs continue, we taxpayers, and our children and grandchildren, will be paying for a long time to come.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=10095" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE:Home Prices Continue 5-Month Decline According to New Report</title><link>http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/3252008_Home_Prices_January.asp#10094</link><pubDate>Tue, 25 Mar 2008 11:00:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">2bb7a989-b681-446d-a7f2-bd5f0562f228:10094</guid><dc:creator>Shari</dc:creator><description>My parent&amp;#39;s generation would be appalled as well!  There were no bail outs in their day.  With the combination of an unprecedented 10+ years of appreciation, opportunistic lenders, plus a self-absorbed &amp;#39;entitled&amp;#39; generation of people who think they deserve the best of everything (even though they can&amp;#39;t afford it). There was no other direction this could&amp;#39;ve gone.  Hopefully this all will translate into lessons learned and better decision making in the future.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=10094" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE:Home Prices Continue 5-Month Decline According to New Report</title><link>http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/3252008_Home_Prices_January.asp#10093</link><pubDate>Tue, 25 Mar 2008 11:00:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">2bb7a989-b681-446d-a7f2-bd5f0562f228:10093</guid><dc:creator>Don Layton</dc:creator><description>What distresses me more than the housing situation are all of the comments by people who refuse to take responsibility for their own actions. People, you were not forced into taking a loan on your home. You do have a measure of intelligence to be able to understand what it means to have a three year arm. You should be wise enough to consult a financial advisor if you dont&amp;#39; understand a particular term.

Banks, mortgage companies...everyone shares some blame. But you alone are ultimately responsible for your own financial decisions...good or poor as they may be. My grandfather&amp;#39;s generation would be appalled at the lack of personal responsibility that has come to define this generation.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=10093" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE:Home Prices Continue 5-Month Decline According to New Report</title><link>http://www.mortgagenewsdaily.com/3252008_Home_Prices_January.asp#10092</link><pubDate>Tue, 25 Mar 2008 11:00:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">2bb7a989-b681-446d-a7f2-bd5f0562f228:10092</guid><dc:creator>Gregory</dc:creator><description>Hear!
