>> I do believe in giving back to veterans who sacrificed their time and put themselves in harms way to defend our country, risking their lives for the greater good. I will also support benefits to veterans. Their actions cannot be thanked enough.
@donnatella:
This is where we disagree slightly. Every employee has benefits and pay. The military is no different. Lifetime benefits just because someone chose one career over another, to me, is not fair. Now of course there are exceptions - if you TRULY were in harms way during time of war, of course - but for many in the military they never see military action.Also while on this - lifetime benefits for legislators - OH HECK NO!!!!!As for making this process easier for people - totally agree, home ownership should NOT be easy. It is not a right to own a home. It should take effort.
@Stealth83: Even military training can be dangerous depending on what they are doing. But, I see your point. We can agree to disagree on that one. We do agree on the no lifetime benefits for legislators. That just promotes corruption as they attempt to add to it. This is going to be a local sub-prime-esque mess all over again. I'm all for streamlining the application, the paperwork, the timeframe and the closing processes, for the sake of efficiency and time savings, but ABSOLUTELY NOT EASING FINANCE REQUIREMENTS. You either have it or you don't.
