idea for stabilizing the housing market.

what if the governemnt just flat outside, if you buy a house from today, forward, the federal government will guarantee you won’t lose money. if you try to sell it and it sells for less than you paid, we’ll send youa check for the difference. Would that not stimulate? would it be more expensive than what we’re doing now? we could get back to all sorts of crazy loans, rapid jumps in equity and just generally get the party started again.

Isn’t that pretty much what they’re already doing? Sounds to me like everyone from the President to Bernanke on down is insisting that nobody lose money on housing.

That’s why all us renters are being forced to keep renting (either that, or seriously overpay for a house)…so the deadbeats can live for free and pretend that their houses are worth what they were in 2005. In the meantime, we get to collect sub-1% interest on our savings. It’s all good.

I agree; but why not make it explicit. He’ll even I’d buy a house. Since the game is rigged anyway why pretend. Just firmly put in a bottom make it a requirement u live there 5 years and prices will remain high and sales will occur without the govt spending Amy money down

FDIC type insurance for housing

People need to understand: foreclosure is not the problem; foreclosure is the solution.
A housing bust is only devastating because it reflects the huge mis-allocation of capital during the housing boom.
