We Hold These Truths To Be Self-evident

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness!We Hold These Truths To Be Self-evident

"Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Life, I live there for I am.

Liberty, the ability to exercise self-determination.

Happiness, uniquely isn't self-evident. We are not guaranteed happiness, only the right to pursuit it!

Nothing is so universally necessary to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness as real estate, a place of your own! The original American Dream.

The Worlds Dream, come to America work hard and get a place of your own to call home. It's still doable, not as easy as it was three years ago, but still easer than any place else.

Even the most humble among us can own a home with enough hard work. A place of our to live!

A place to exercise Liberty, limited only by what we agree to!

A place to pursue Happiness!

The Dream, the self-evident rights, have not diapered! They have been abandon by many seeking to avoid the hard work. They have been abandon by those who've replaced educated logic with easily digested simplistic PC sound bytes written at a third grade level by those with a anti-American political agenda, read to them by pretty people whose only true accomplishment in life was being potty trained! People preaching salvation while seeking dominion over you. Like Orwell submersed "All animals are created equal, some are just more equal than others."

Like being rich everyone wants to live the American Dream, but few and fewer are willing to do what's necessary to achieve it!

If you're willing, if you desire, if you're rational now is the time to buy a place of your own!

Rational? Yes! The biggest fear limiting home ownership is negative equity, the so called "upside down" or "under water" how terrible. But, is it? Everyone who's ever financed a car, and who among us hasn't has been "under water" "upside down" and never lost a minutes sleep. Yet, we panic at the same though in a home of our own. Why? Ignorance!

Ignorance, those sound bites omit the fact that through the magic of loam amortization fleeting equity always returns! Fixed rate loans retain the same payment you agreed to and if you make the payments you agreed to will be paid off on the day you agreed to! Always! Only the gullibly ignorant would accept car financing where the only time the vehicle is worth what you owe is when the check making the last payment clears, yet reject home financing.

Home owners in trouble have many months to recover or work it out, Tenants in the same position have 3 to 30 days before becoming homeless.

Home owners have the time to pursue happiness. Tenants have the remaining term of the lease.

Home owners control what they can do and have in their home. Tenants are subject to their lease and Land Lords folly. Apartment leases normally contain a provision to allow the Land Lord to change the rules upon notice.

Home owners have the security of knowing their payment (excluding taxes and insurance) for the next 15 to 30 years. Tenants rents are rarely secured for more than one year, they to face increases for taxes and insurance plus the comparable market and the Land Lords whim.

There has never been a more compelling time to buy a home! Rates are low! Prices are low! Choices are over welling!

The choice is your's! "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." Or, voluntary servitude!

Don't let yourself be fenced in by Land Lords and Government housing!

"Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." Unless your life is a sears of one night stands, unless you're willing to have a Land Lord limiting your liberty, Unless happiness is simply day to day survival you need a home!

We all need to re -read the Constitution and the letters of our Founding Fathers.  We have become so lazy assumeing someone else will take care of us because "we" are owed. This can go back to schools when kids were passed when they did not earn it or little leage where there are no winners or lossers, There needs to be accountability for actions. Just as home owners do.

William, the dream gives us the OPPORTUNITY to not be fenced in and GO FOR IT. No guarantees for any of us, but the best chance for most of our lives here in America.

Bill I have heard countless times "I have a right to be happy". I follow that by asking, who gave you that right? I always get an argument when I ask the question, but never an answer.  And that is because it is as you stated "We are not guaranteed happiness, only the right to pursuit it!".  The same is true for our dreams.

The right to pursue happiness comes from God. In fact He want's us to find it, but never in possessions, or anything else but in the Lord himself.

I am not looking for a political savior to come and arrive on the scene!

This has been one of the great countries in the world (we are losing it), and certainly it is because of the greed, fraud, power hungry life time politicians, etc. We can at least blame them for all of that.

We can also blame ourselves, as voters many have not voted very wisely, also too many good people have set back, complained, but never stood up to be counted as someone who will stand fast and make a difference in the system. The country, it's constitution, and bill of rights was certainly founded upon Christian principles and until we return to those principles we will not become a blessed nation again.

Paul.

Lord knows you're right!

Jefferson said: "endowed by their Creator," He is agreed,

I'd have said "Judao-Christen" but we're essential one people separated by a Savior. Much like we are with the English, one people separated by a common language.

I am not looking for a political savior ether. I'm looking for a politically Revival!

Such a revival requires a return of the American Dream of which home ownership.

You're off the subject, but welcome.

Without home ownership there is not American Dream per se.
