Has anyone seen any historical charts on median / average housing prices during the boom times and the recessions? Thanks!

>>>I never said I don't think the economy is in trouble...There's a lot of area between "no trouble" and "the Great Depression redux."<<< I guess you don't recall raising the specter of Hoover in connection to the word "clueless" in your prior post to me...and he was President when again? Seems like you implied we are on the cusp of yet another Great Depression as a scare tactic when you apparently think otherwise? (I just caught you being flip and named your game.) >>>Seems to me like the thing you haven't figured out is what it takes for an adult worker to make the jump from minimum wage to average wage. Looks to me like employers are willing to pay a lot more than minimum wage to the majority of the work force. I suspect your time would be better spent helping people make that transition.<<< My time is better spent just where I'm spending it, thanks anyway. Maybe you should help them? You're the one who's convinced minimum wage jobs are "entry" level for those working them. You've said as much. I already know that is unfortunatley not the situation in so many cases.
