  • Why a Revamped Housing Plan Should Be Government's First Priority [View article]
    You've got to be kidding me. You're agreeing with a proposal from the homebuilders??? The homebuilders CAUSED this mess!

    The homebuilders overbuilt, causing this housing glut (and crash). Yes, easy access to credit fueled the mania, but the homebuilders still were to ones who built the darn homes! They could have scaled back construction several years ago when plenty of people were warning that a housing bubble was forming. But no, the homebuilders kept building anyway.

    Now the homebuilders want to the gov't to "save the housing market"??

    Again: are you kidding me?
