Now, Lisa, I hope you know that my comments are about the huge banking 
interests, not the you's and me's of the business world. I have felt good 
for 35 years about my roles in helping people find and acquire the homes of 
their dreams. Idealism aside, mortgages are a necessary part of the 
home-buying process for most people. As are Realtors, appraisers, house 
inspectors, termite inspectors, roof inspectors, insurers, title companies, 
escrow officers, recorders and more.
