Eviction rules have to be changed

It's time for change. Changing the foreclosure eviction policies is a place to start.

Imagine you're a hard working, financially conscious taxpayer. Every day you work hard. Every month you pay your rent.

Then one day, out of the blue, you come home and learn your landlord defaulted of his loan payment.

Without warning, you have no roof over your family's head. Worse yet, most of your worldly processions have been tossed out on the street and disappeared. Literally stolen right from the curb.

Where is the sense of responsibility in our current laws? This is just one example of unjust practices that need to be changed. Changed yesterday, not tomorrow.

Where is our sense of purpose directed? Where are the fundamentals of sound judgment?

Lobbyists are destroying our society, and politicians are not providing the answers we desperately need.

We don't need to be patient here. We need change.
