Recent Policy Decisions and a Greater Depression

I disagree with the assumption that the mortgage crisis started this mess. Manufacturing has gone from 20% to 10% of our economy over the last decade. What do you think happens to the housing market when 10,000 auto workers lose their jobs?

We need to make US manufacturing compedetive with the rest of the world, then people will have the wealth to buy homes.

No, instead we'll do a rant about the UAW and corporate jets and ignore the fundamental problems with the economy.

Pay no attention tot he man behind the curtain!
