The WSJ recently had a "Yes" vs ""No" Op Ed on this same issue you might find interesting.
Eighty Years After the Great Crash -- 'Is It the '30s Again?' - WSJ.com
Definitely agree that the housing bubble is not over and that it is being temporarily propped up with Stimulus money. This same stimulus money is not creating any wealth. It is merely sustaining things for now. When it is gone...... guess what?
The Op Ed notes the Bond and Gold markets being the true indicators of what is to come and that the rising Stock Market is a mirage. We'll see.
On the other hand, figures pale in comparison to 1930. A slight % of Banks have failed compared to the 1930's and the unemployment rate is far lower now. In other words, things are bad... but not nearly as bad as the Great Depression.
What is interesting is that both the "yes" and "no" opinions note that there has been no employment recovery and that the future is not looking bright in that dept.
