'In my Dad’s generation, conservatism claimed to value humility, restraint, civic virtue, and suspicion of concentrated power. Now self-described conservatives cheer for billionaire spectacle like courtiers applauding the king’s newest palace wing… or his invisible clothes.'

'The White House was never supposed to be Versailles. The presidency was never supposed to be a throne wrapped in gold leaf and ego. A republic survives only when leaders remain citizens among citizens.'

EDIT
Just wanted to comment, what's really stupid is that if'n I defaulted and they had to collect the collateral, I'm likely in a situation where I'd have to cash out the IRA any how, so what sense does it make not to allow it to be used as collateral?


Ughhh, I hate financial laws, they're often stupid. My husband passed last summer, and left me a fairly big chunk of money, though mostly in IRA's. I want to downsize here, and I'd prefer to buy or build the new place before selling this one.

The problem?
I do gig work, so not exactly a steady income, plus I'm already paying a mortgage on this place, so getting a mortgage is… Iffy at best I expect. Easy solution, getting a loan with the IRA as collateral, there's enough in there to buy 3, maybe 4 houses where I'm looking to move… And that's not allowed, which is kinda stupid, because if'n I'm willing to pay the taxes and penalties, I could just take the money that I need from the IRA.

Seriously, does this make any sense that I have the money, I can even get the money, but I'm not allowed to use the money I have as collateral, but I can withdraw it. Anyone wanna loan me money illegally?
