Nope, the USA doesn't have WW, WAO, bijstand, etc. there's no social security at all, as far as I remember. So if your house gets taken, you're up that fabled creek without a paddle, because the only help you can get is either from friends or relatives willing to put you up until you get back on your feet.
Wait for this stuff to kick off in Holland as well though, given that Fortis had to get their asses bailed out to the tune of 4 billion, the AEX taking a plunge... shitty situation.
