 Considering the the financial mess we are in is tied directly to the mortgage business leaves me baffled how some can complain about the underwriting process

 've been paying rent for 10 years and have never been late. However the past couple of years I have been investing heavily into my business so on paper, so my income on paper doesn't look great. I doubt I would get a mortgage for 300k (which is what I want) yet my payment would only be a few hundred more a month than I am currently paying for rent and have been for the past 6 years without a single issue. I'm sure this is never taken into consideration yet should be in some cases.
