Yes, the number of people who are suffering foreclosure is too small to matter - not enough to raise a well-regulated militia with the right to bear arms to and take over Washington.

We are now years into the market clearing process and still no catastrophe, and it's fun for Big Ben who can test his helicopter theories about deflation in a big-time real-time 3D experiment.

Gold bugs are lurking around waiting for their day in the sun, hoping for catastrophe, or at least disaster.

House prices are coming down nicely but still not cheap enough that I'm willing to buy half a dozen holiday homes. It doesn't seem likely to get that cheap. Maybe one bach somewhere will come into buy range, but I'm not holding my breath.

exactly, what crisis?

just mr & mrs 50% wiped out j6p boomer by action of biblical market, old testament edition, with forced retirement (by way of unemployment) expectations to be dashed harshly against the reality of imploded 401k, to be further pulverized by way of faulty pension and insurance schemes backstopped by worse than useless social security fraud, all to be made much worse by officialdom know-it-all folks constituted from the likes of you, and all existing within construct of systemic fraud championed by prime evil and abetted by sub-prime evilette.

what crisis indeed.

as there is no repentance detected in your tone, so only mean one truth, that the depression will continue, and will do so well into the demographic tsunami.

btw, a reminder Message 23101727 on way point past, and yes, i did mean by less than 1 year

and what were are still Message 24260266

and for your salvation, i would guess we are about 10% into the crisis by magnitude, and maybe 5% by duration

Ilaine, can it be that your echelon will not be suffering because you are at a stratum that have the know-how not to engage in foolish business.

Meaning that the segment of the population that was fleeced consists of the ignorant and incautious.
