Reply #84: really? the "you're all just jealous" argument?

[uncle ray]

nobody is jealous of someone who depends on a tax deduction to be able to afford to impress their friends, family and neighbors. i AM jealous of those who own their homes, whether modest or lavish, free and clear. and that is what i strive for myself.

good for you, doing your part to prop up the construction sector. you're also propping up Wall Street and paying for it with federal tax dollars. i say FUCK wall street, pay off a modest mortgage and give your hard earned money directly to your local businesses and do it without the federal gov't subsidizing the whole process while someone far away gets very rich off the whole process.
