But a lot of us made exactly that choice Jon -- we chose not to try and buy because we thought it was too risky and we weren't sure we'd be able to afford it in the future. Granted, if I have a choice (which I may not) I'd rather see my tax dollars go to home owners, event those who possibly made unwise choices, than to banks and financial institutions. But honestly, I'd rather not have to bail out either ...
