The Need For Nation Wide Debt Relief

With the way that our nation has been spending, it is no wonder that we are in such a desperate need for nation wide debt relief. But that may be something out of dreams then something from reality, as it does seem that there is no end in sight. One of the biggest problems that people in our country are facing right now is foreclosure of their homes because of adjustable rate mortgages. While not everyone has this type of loan, those who do are experiencing a rude wake up call as their interest rates are shooting up through the roof, which in turn raises their monthly payment to something they just cannot afford and this is where the fight for a nation wide debt relief plan started being requested.

Of course, it is truly the fault of the homeowner as they signed for and agreed to the terms of an adjustable rate mortgage. But most homeowners failed to see that their interest rate will really increase and that is why they got such a low interest rate in the beginning. For those who planned ahead for the rate change, they were able to get out of it because they saved money to cover a few increased payments while they refinanced their home. But for those who didn't do that, their chances of a refinance are slim to none because they fell so far behind on their mortgage payments and this is why everyone is saying we need a nation wide debt relief plan of action.

Do Citizens Deserve It

Think about it like this, a person goes out and runs up all of their bills and spends everything possible on their credit card and now they cannot afford everything so they go and file bankruptcy and it all magically goes away. But now that filing for bankruptcy has become so much harder with the stricter rules, everyone is wanting the government to step in and fix everything by giving nation wide debt relief options. But how does that work and why do people deserve anyone to come in and change the terms of their mortgage and change what they agreed? Is it the fault of the bank because they gave you a loan that you really could not afford?

Even though it was bad business, the homeowner signed the papers knowing exactly what the terms were and because they were so blindsided by the fact they were getting a home, they failed to look two or three years down the road to see they cannot afford what they bought. And now, because they are suffering for the terrible contract they signed, they are seeking nation wide debt relief to stop the banks from taking their homes. So, let's say the government does step in and pays off the past due balances and such, who do you think is really covering that? It is the homeowners themselves because before you know it, taxes will be raised and more complaints will be on the way.
