ParticipantIf we don’t fire about 50 percent of Congress for lack of performance than it is the definite proof that we have hope but no expectations. Hope is just another way of saying “I give up. I’m too lazy as a voter. Just give me the illusion of progress.” There’s a ginormous difference between hope and expectations.
I say vote for some random third party candidate and put a thorn in the side of congress, both dem and rep. We’re gonna hurt regardless of whom we put in office. Might as well give the hurt back to them. They should no longer enjoy their job security. And add to that having to deal with a third-party fruit cake.

ParticipantLove the who song lyrics you have been posting around Allan. I think this thread needs a good protest song too.

Participant[quote=macromaniac]You have to love these Realtors today…typical self interest all the time. I bet you it was time to buy in 2005 also because you could get an option ARM loan and cash flow your rental property that was 75% over valued.
Hey Dan, you ever study economics 101? By the way, please show us where it is best to buy right now and why along with average rents with a 15% to 20% rent fade built in over the next two years….cant wait to see that information. [/quote]
I don’t think that what I say is particularly self serving or counterintuitive.
And I don’t own smoke weed anymore (other posters remarks notwithstanding).To Macro: I have studied Econ. The micro and macro versions do not change what I am describing.
(Incidentally, my last year at UCSD included mathematical modeling of demand equations ala Von Neumann and Morganstern. If you have some helpful info on that front I will listen.)
What I am describing is more tangible than a class or book. The predicted rent fade are not something that are tangible until they actually exist (like 03’s 27 percent increases or 07’s 20 percent drop). Again, I can only describe what I am seeing and the what buyers are wanting. I personally don’t think that a class on econ makes a $536/mth payment (principal and interest on a 1-bedroom place with $10,000 down right now) a terribly bad idea.
Would you disagree?
