Originally posted by zeeblebotThe housing market will not recover entirely. It will remain a buyer's market for a while which makes me happy 🙂 In addition to helping poor people move up, this also helps rich people with money to burn. This latter factor I think encourages the rich to keep the economy suppressed. The fewer rich people there are, and the more culturally similar they are, the easier it is for them to act as a cartel to do this. Keeping cash out of the economy means every dollar's value goes up in real terms, including every dollar of their vast fortunes. This is what printing money, progressive taxation, affirmative action etc (liberal stuff) helps neutralize.
beautiful curves ... the subject not so beautiful but the graphs are ...
anyone still think the housing market will go up? how about the economy?

Warren Buffet on the recession
Those who have a house purchased at boom prices are out of luck. They won't get their investment back for the foreseeable future.
The economy will go up.

No, they will never go up for all of eternity.

1. Get our financial institutions off the deregulation bandwagen, and face the fact that business need to be governed.
2. Stop giving tax breaks to companies that export American jobs overseas. Argue all you want, but throwing American employees on the unemployment lines will not help the American economy.
Sadly....these things won't happen. The G O P will be voted back in shortly. Deregulation and aiding companies in offshoring American jobs are the foundations of the Conservative agenda.

I've noticed a gradual decline in the economy since Clinton took office. In fact, I have heard that the middle class has been shrinking for some time. You kids can blame the financial melt down and play partisan politics all you like by pointing the finger at only one party, however, I say that the credit crisis was more of a symptom than a cause for decline. So continue to blame either the only the GOP or Dems for all your woes.
Enjoy!! 😵
