the commission never issued a report.[/quote]Huh?

This is the commissions website. You can see the report linked on the front page. It was issued and ignored.
I linked to the report in my previous post. It came from the commission, issued on Dec 1, 2010. It came after the co-chairs recommendation, which came in November 2010.
I’ll admit, I read more of the co-chairs recommendations, and that’s what I was thinking of when I said in the previous post that I thought the recommendations were good, albeit painful.
But a quick scan of the full commissions recommendations show it’s similar to the co-chairs list.

Participant[quote=SD Realtor]UCGAL shhhhh…
Representatives swooshed that report under the rug really quick. The problem was that the report actually mad a hell of alot of sense but nobody has the stomach for it.[/quote]
I agree… it disappeared from view in like one news cycle. Everyone deemed it politically impossible.
I read through it – yeah, some of the cuts will hurt… but the gradual phase in lessons the pain… but still makes inroads against the deficit.

ParticipantJust curious… What do people think about the ideas from the bipartison debt commission? Seems like there was something to hate from both sides… which means it might have some merit.

January 26, 2011 at 9:22 AM in reply to: Yes! It’s happening, or people are finally starting to acknowledge it, the double dip #658213UCGal
Participant[quote=MadeInTaiwan]I sense that asking prices have dipped a little in 92024 and southern 92009. However, I also noticed that the southbound traffic during the morning rush hour has definitely worsened compared to last January. Of course, there is no telling if those commuters can afford $4K mortgages. Time will tell…[/quote]
I think that’s more indicitive of recoverying employment than improving housing.January 26, 2011 at 9:22 AM in reply to: Yes! It’s happening, or people are finally starting to acknowledge it, the double dip #658275UCGal
