This is an article by Dave Ramsey. He explains so much and goes over the Mark to Market accounting, which is on the table.
He wants us to call our Representatives. A link is provided at the bottom of the site in the event you are not sure who your representatives are.
He says it will solve, at least, 60% of the problem.
Basically, he want us to:
"Call your Congressman. Call your Senator. Tell them to change the mark-to-market accounting law and to extend insurance but extend no loans. If they extend loans - if they borrow the money on the national debt in order for us to all go into the mortgage business a trillion dollars - you're going to fire them and send them home." (changed his wording - lol)
I'll be calling in the morning.
