@Jonathan Alden I’m investing in Chicago, in particular on the south side where the Obama Library area is coming to.

The drilling moratorium during the Obama administration did a lot of damage to surrounding Gulf coast areas who are dependent on offshore drilling but nothing noticeable to the Lake Charles area.  

Clearly Mike Bennett should have followed Obama's example and just not shown up.

Once I found out that Obama used this to grab millions of swing voters so why not try to be better??

This plan was put in place by President Obama and his team.

So "company policy" be damned, if she wants to give a cordial / greeting hug, so be it...I suppose same but different how the mideast culture the males give each other pecks on the cheek as greetings I'm to understand.That being said, its a tough call as whether to impose or follow your norm vs their norm... 

Full regular income tax plus possibly self employment tax, plus applicable state(s) tax, not sure about the Obama-era surcharge tax. 

I would add that often the first attempt at a modification fails. and the lenders are changing thier parameters every day. while she may not qualify for the "Obama PLan" the banks have thier own in house plans that do the job quite nicely. the point was made that the home is not underwater but from where i stand it is very close and if the bank were to foreclose they would take a loss as well as run up legal fees. there is so much more to consider on this womens behalf but i do concurr that there is not an investment opportunity here.

Hopefully, by next november Obama will be gone, and there will be fewer RINOs in the GOP.

Im currently looking in Vermont, Iowa, Mid east..
