4. In Florida's "rocket docket" foreclosures are given 90 seconds each.

And THAT is in a judicial foreclosure state. Non-judicial states don't even require court action at all. Tell me that's not a travesty in this situation that we have now?

Somebody should've put the brakes on non-judicial foreclosure 2 to 3 years ago. And they STILL haven't. And in MD where I live, we are a non-judicial foreclosure state and also have ZERO homestead exemption under bankruptcy. Talk about effed up!!! In normal times it didn't impact so many people, but in this climate to let that continue is ridiculous.

Homeowners have been thrown to the wolves. And most in foreclosure can NOT afford an attorney. A good stimulus program would've been to supply some legal aid to them. Most such agencies ONLY do criminal, domestic, and immigration cases.
