- I disagree with your premise that "lots of middle class people" can afford 750K for a new mortgage. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 18, 04:31 5
  - I get that you want to look at this as a stand alone policy because you think there's a moral high ground, but you can't because - Reagen Dec 18, 04:38 3

      - As far as I can tell, he couldn't say this though -- there's not a county in Texas with an average value of $750k. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 18, 06:34
      - I'd think Ted Cruz had a stroke if he spoke out against a tax cut. -- nm - Reagen Dec 18, 04:49
  - I knew several people back in Calgary who had around that for a mortgage. Well off but far from the lighting cigars with 100s money. And again - Reagen Dec 18, 04:35
