Collapse avoidance: More American consumers see credit as the way to go

No wonder; credit plays a dual role as cause and effect. Families buy homes on easy credit terms, and as they pay down the mortgage and housing prices rise, they have a new, easily-tapped source of credit in the equity.

Borrowing on home equity indicated a tragedy during the Great Depression.

Today, it's the way to go.

It was there for everyone to see.

In the past 8 years what have witnessed was the delay of the painfull bite of the retunr to the natural size.

The whole thing was bubble after bubble after bubble.

Now, give up any hope! There's no way out.
