Ok fine, sure, the two aren't mutually exclusive. But no can argue that the housing peak was common sense. It was an artificial bubble. It was manic. Prices are coming down to where they should've been earlier. And we are worse off because of the lost productivity of the last decade.

As for the bailouts, that's just making things worse later on. It's clearly mortgaging the future for the present.

some more good news:

Consumer prices rise less than expected in May - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090617/ap_on_bi_go_ec_fi/us_economy - broken link)
JG, if the bubble didn't burst in the early 90's, you probably wouldn't be a homeowner today. prices returning to normal is not a bad thing.
