came across this article on Boston housing foreclosures on Boston indymedia. Peoples out there are doing it real fresh- organizing eviction blockades to prevent the police & banks from evicting families from their homes. EVICION BLOCKADES! I LOVE IT! These greedy bastardos subprime lenders have been picking on working families and taking us for all we got.
In the US, foreclosures in 2007 were up to 2.2 million, that's a 75% increase from 2006. Here at home in the Bay Area, a total of 11,530 homes were lost to foreclosures in 2007, thats sevenfold the 1,651 foreclosures in 2006. Hijole! When it rains it pours. Does anyone know how many foreclosures or mortgage default notices (when homeowners are several months behind on payments) have taken place out here in the southeast part of SF- Excelsior, Bayview, etc..?
