Tom, the housing market is down because there is no money. And the
housing **** hit the fan in 2006.

no, you are wrong. The housing market is returning to sanity, after a
grossly inflated bubble.

And the bubble was because of LIAR and not down and easy credit loans.
Loans only made because F&F said they would cover them. Same thing happened
in the dot.bomb Easy money, low margins and everyone thinking the stock
could only go up. Stock for a company with no income, and a website, etc.
Did made Clinton look good. Lots of money coming in from the option taxes
and last conservative Republicans that held spending in check for at least 2
years. Allowed lot of surplus money. Unfortunately that surplus was
committed to long term spending and when the surplus vaporized, we had bills
to pay and no money.

We need a Stimulus package, not a trillion pounds of pork. Look at JFK for
how he jump started the economy.
