You're displaying the short term type thinking that's endemic to liberals in general. Liberal ideology deems it necessary to charge in and rescue any minority group that might be in pain regardless of the fact that they almost always make the situation worse by getting the gov't involved. When the pain doesn't exist to the extent of it being a problem for others then the left invents the pain. To see this in action you need look no further than Eric Holder and his moronic statement about Americans being cowards about the race issue......

when they foreclose millions of those mortgages, does that affect the economy in which you work and prosper?

You can't have your cake and eat it too......

Let's see if we can at least agree on a few points:

1. Many people see the economic problem in terms of the housing bubble.

2. Government policies and intervention in the private sector is one of the main things that inflated the housing market.

3. The bubble needs to deflate first before our economy starts to recover.

I'd add a 4th and 5th point but IMO I figure it'd be a cold day in hell before you'd admit to any of the above.

Just how do you expect the housing market to deflate while the gov't does everything in it's power to prop it up?
