I don’t know where you got the idea I am a realtor. I will admit I WAS a real estate broker back in the 90′s.

I guess I could call you names too and that would get one hell of an argument going but instead I think I will gently point out the real estate people didn’t create or contribute to this whole subprime mess. By your post, I surmise you missed the root cause.

That really isn’t surprising since tunnel vision is one hell of a limiting factor when it comes to seeing what is happening in front of your face and/or providing a solution to this or any crisis. Unless I missed your plan for a solution, I will also surmise you don’t have one and can’t even come up with a germ of an idea anyone could use to construct one.

I will make a third assumption – you can’t even identify one Joe Citizen who understood what the outcome of Greenspan’s loose money policy was going to turn into. I’d bet you didn’t know how it was going to turn out either. Closed eyes and fogged brain do that to a guy.

You probably thought the price of tulips would continue to rise and you’d keep buying and selling and buying and selling. Now that the bubble burst, you feel confident pointing a finger.

Great, but point it at the correct culprits.

Other than that, how’d you like the play Mrs. Lincoln?

You’re a realtor. Realtors’ helped contribute to this whole subprime mess at the initial stage. Do you not realize that you’re a hypocrite when you post rhetoric promoting the interests of “Joe Citizen”?
