<The Realtors group, normally known for its optimistic view of the housing market, is now cautioning against getting too enthusiastic about any recovery -- as it lobbies hard for new government tax credits to boost home sales.> finance.yahoo.com It's kind of funny how lobbying interests continue to generate more bad policy. The Realtor's seem to be willing to overlook the fact that the market is beginning to clear itself, and trying to get taxpayer money to accelerate the recovery so they can make more commissions. They should be restricted from lobbying TARP just like the rest of the banks. Their commission levels are obscene to begin with.
