- Is Libertarianism Nothing More Than The Glorification Of Greed And Irresponsibility?
By: JOHN HARDY | - The faith in the sanctity of the market is the bedrock of the Libertarian creed. It is not so much a philosophy as a religion- only in place of a benevolent God, we have the omniscient market. The market is seen as a perfect, self regulating mechanism. The implication is that, it is far better to let the market take its natural course, than intervene and cause much greater disharmony in the long run.

- How To Survive A Foreclosure
By: Constantine Lekendiros | - As long as you are willing to be open and honest with your lender, and you are not afraid to set up some kind of payment arrangement that you can actually commit to; the odds are that your lender will be willing to work with you, allowing you to avoid the foreclosure process all together.
