Think about it, even if you are approved for the Max amount for a homeloan, you don't have to Max out, you can buy under your means. This isn't a secret, so is there some personal responsiblity or not? I understand the problem is in the subprime meaning the vunerable loans to people with low income or shaky credit. Would these people be savy enough in finance, not to Max out a Homeloan and live within their means? Personal Responsiblity. Now The Lender does know all this but in the end the Lender has the property as collateral, and figures one way or another a forecloser, and they can recoup by reselling the property. Is this buyer beware? Yes people were taken advantage of but there was awhole lot of cavalier attitude going on by both partys.

I do feel there is A LITTLE blame to be put on lenders. They should know if a client will be able to consistently make his/her payments. However, if you make $40,000 a year, you cannot afford a $400,000 house!! BTW, I know plenty of whites who have been negatively affected by the subprime meltdown. Is Jackson fighting for them as well? You know, if these same lenders DIDN’T offer loans to minorities, Jackson would still complain and threaten lawsuits.
