"Own your failure"

Everyone in the mortgage situation has responsibility for what they signed or did. Investors, lenders and borrowers. We have a Democratic candidate that talks about personal responsibility and a republican president and candidate who say no one should be responsible, no one should own their failure, the federal government will buy it from you.

Everyone has responsibility for their actions, it's shouldn't be the government's job to take that responsibility away from any entity. People will say it is too much for individuals or for the economy and some of the companies can't handle it and will collapse. Well taking responsibility is not always easy but it is always right.
