When the Fed prints money, it charges an interest rate to the government before it gives the gov/t the money...creating instant debt and inflationary pressure.
To be happy house prices come down, ignores the peril that millions of current homeowvers face through NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN.
The monetary system is the problem, not homeowners.

A rich man's net worth, verses me being able to afford a home for my family......hmmmm, it's a toughy.
