Both parties have sold out the citizens of this country. They are allowing foreign nationals to flagrantly ignore our borders and laws. If we do not replace them with people who care about the country, we deserve to lose it.

I a couple of headlines related to the first-time buyer credit on Yahoo business next to each other. I got a little chuckle out of it.

well, I guess my infant daughter will be buying my house from me this week. I’ll sell it to her for $8,000.

If you are in Nevada, you will have to pay the taxes for what the County Appraisers deem to be a “fair and reasonable rate” as set by them no matter what the actual selling price is. Somehow I doubt Nevada is the only place doing this.

I’ll gift her the $8,000 in cash to buy the house, she can then apply so the government can credit her.

Swede, to answer your question, Congress has enacted so-called refundable credits, such as the earned income tax credit, which acts effectively as a negative income tax. Filers can get refunds based on these credits even if their taxable income is zilch.

I HEARD YESTERDAY THAT MANY OF THESE FIRST TIME HOMEBUYERS WERE THE MINOR CHILDREN (ANCHOR BABIES) OF OUR “UNDOCUMENTED WELFARE SCAM ARTISTS”.

Treasury IG finds 100,000 illegal immigrants sought the $8k tax credit for new home buyers… or as I call it, an arrest list…

I think this is great news. The Treasury IG found 100,000 fraudulent claims. Guess what’s on each one of them? An address! It seems to me that we have a really nice list of people to go arrest and we know where they are. …

Somebody help me out here. How do folks who don’t pay taxes, (illegals) get a tax credit? Sounds loopy to me.

My guess is these are more liars’ loans, so it’s the house purchase that’s important to them, not the tax credit. With the added benefit of lower prices than last time…

Buy yours now.

*I for one refuse to commit mortgage tax credit fraud, so it’s only natural(in a freaking insane world)for the federal government to allow illegal aliens to do the jobs Americans just won’t do; Just ask George Bush!

I think you will find that this is actually due to government regulations going back to the days of Clinton in conjunction with the leaders of Fannie and Freddie … and these loans began being passed to the banks under the promise of federal (Read: taxpayer) backing should anything go wrong and these people who were unable to afford loans be unable to pay them back … uhhh … because they could not afford them.

Govt creates crisis. Govt comes in to “clean up” the crisis caused by undue govt interference in the (formerly) free market. Govt creates new crisis by attempting to repair crisis that never would have existed had they not stepped in in the first place.

Rinse and repeat

NOW WAY! People unfairly taking advantage of a government program? I don’t believe it.

The next thing you know someone will be saying there are Maoists and Marxists in the government…
