There's plenty of blame to go around, alright. Yes, the buyers are to blame - as are the banks and the mortgage bundlers.

The difference is this: the buyers have paid or are paying for their mistakes. Either they've lost their homes, seen their equity take a disastrous hit, or have declared bankruptcy and lost any hope of getting credit for the forseeable future.

Meanwhile the bankers and the bundlers come out smelling like a rose.

I think that's what folks are upset about.
