The American Housing and Economic Collapse

Great article on the causes of the housing collapse in the U.S. which led to the even bigger collapse and our current malaise. Government trying to control things with disastrous consequences. Sometimes ideology blinds politicians and people to the likely consequences of their acts.  Sometimes right- or left-wing political correctness trumps reality and the consequences can be devastating.  Stalin's, Hitler's and Mao's obsession with ideology over reality cost millions of lives.  We need leaders who make some attempt to live in and understand the real word.  Not la-la landers.
