UNTIL Greenspan yanks the "free money" rug from under these people. And he will, and the consumer will be deeper in the hole they are currently digging for themselves.

Not according to the data I've seen. The data says folks are saving more, using the rebates to pay off credit card debt and many refi's are to lower payments to get added liquidity. You might want to go find a chart of funds in money market funds and other liquid assets.

Chart showing personal income down significantly since 2000
martincapital.com
and consumer credit is down as well
martincapital.com
the graph on my 2nd chart shows the ratio of credit to personal income is up, but this is because incomes are down

The ratio is still high... and if the trend continues to lower labor costs and have well trained engineers become florists...
