Where does Tom Parlon get off? First, they want the government to put a new generation of FTB's up to their necks in debt with a state guarantee for new mortgages and now this.
The housing industry have lobbied against tougher housing regulations and the use of timber frame housing for years. They built very poor quality housing and sold it on at massive profits and now they want the taxpayers to give them handouts to fix the problem.
Capitalism was fine for them in the boom years but now that the futures not so rosy they want the taxpayer to bail them out!
