When you lose your job, you may not be able to pay your car loan payment, should the government pick that up? How about your credit card payments? Your boat payment? Your electricity bill? Your phone bill?

Yes, losing a job is a terrible situation, but with proper planning and saving it can be dealt with. These people that lose jobs and claim to be out of work for 12 and 18 months are complete fools. Sorry, when my family is on the line I'll work at McDonalds, Lowes, Burger King, or wherever I can find a job. I'll work 2 and 3 jobs. You can find a job if you are looking.

This was your question:
Presumably you could afford the house when you bought it, so why not now?

I was simply saying that unemployment is getting worse and that would change your conclusion. I've lost two jobs (second temporary contractor) since Nov. 2004 and got a new job in 4 months and 9 months. That wasn't bad at all for an engineer with over 30 years experience.
