Participantwhat makes you think a measly $500 is adequate? This isn't an attack, I'm just wondering how you came up with that figure?
I think an apology should come with a modicum of compensation to say you mean it. I don't think the voters would support large payments. I believe that an apology would allow us to move forward once and for all.
*
I should not have said anything about compensation as this detracts from the current issues.
I agree that we should look forward rather than backwards.
Again, the issue facing voters is that we have two imperfect choices. Which one would you choose? And you do have to choose one over the other.

ParticipantDukehorn, I think you meant reparations to Japanese Americans.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_American_internment
In 1988, Congress passed and President Ronald Reagan signed legislation which apologized for the internment on behalf of the U.S. government. The legislation stated that government actions were based on “race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership”.[10] $1.6 billion in reparations were later disbursed by the U.S. government to surviving internees and their heirs.It worked-out to $20,000 per person. Not much.

Australia apologized to the aborigines (without compensation).

ParticipantI do not see SD Realtor posting about making his wife happy and making low-ball offers anymore. That’s telling in my opinion. I’m betting that, in light of the drops, he’s setting his sights higher up the real estate ladder.
I do agree with sdrealtor (the other one) that patience is key. People will buy no matter what the market is. The market doesn’t move that fast.
I do however think that interest rates will spike next year so that will crash the market further.
