You've updated the kitchen, lowered your asking price, changed real estate agents--but nothing, it seems, will sell your house! In this miserable market of depressed prices, foreclosures and worse--what's a desperate homeowner to do?

Perhaps it's time to just start praying.

Literally.

An old and sometimes forgotten Catholic tradition is gaining new followers who now believe the only hope for their house may be to mix real estate with religion.

You can thank the United States Government for all our problems. These greedy dirty politicians have screwed us Americans over for years and for many more to come. All they think is about themselves and they don't care what happens to the tax payer because they have all our money.

Everyone should stop paying taxes and watch these scumbags go broke and cry on the news about how they are losing their homes, vehilces and families due to the financial stress it puts on a married couple.

Message to all the politicians:
You're all scumbags and deserve to be locked up in prison. You're all nothing but thiefs that steal money from us hard working Americans.

The United States Government are American Terrorists destroying this country.

How about the American people start taxing the living crap out of government like they do to us...

Hey mrcrab, you hit the nail on the head. That's what I have been telling my wife, we should go on strike and don't pay our taxes. We have to do something cause the government is working against us. Like Ross Perot said about N.A.F.T.A. it will suck all the jobs out of America and it has. Look at everything you buy today, more and more of your purchases are made in mexico. We need to TAR and FEATHER these traitors and ship them to mexico cause they're gutting America of all good jobs and letting them move to THIRD WORLD COUNTRYS.

AMEN Guy's. We have been saying that if we marched on Washington there would not be enough room in the City. SO, we are NOT alone. I think the average taxpayer has had enough and is about ready to get serious. Let's all remember what caused us to break free of the British. The politicians cannot steal that much money. It's the liberal idea that freely throwing money at problems is the answer. Throwing billions into aid for countries that side against us and hate us, etc. Yes and yes, they all have their own pork projects, They all want to get elected so they try to bring the money home etc. And you know that the lobbiest's know where to put the money. But it's this idea that what ever they do, the American public will forget and forgive. The housing thing I could see coming. Every developer was taking their profits and doing the old 10-31 exchange to avoid tax. This means they were starting two and three more projects with the profits from one. So the big guys had 20 to 40 going all over the country. Pretty soon the inventory was so massive that it outpaced demand and the bubble burst. Some of the big greedy buggers went belly up. The good news, it is starting to come back. Trust me, America has not cut back on getting married and all the fun stuff that follows. The demand will be back. I forget what they said our population was going to be by 2015, I think because it scared me so much.
