I'll gladly pay a little more in taxes to keep the government strong, the labor unions stronger and the lives of our troops safe at home... where they belong... not waging war for other countries in lands that will never really be our allies because we are a Christian nation.
for every up cycle, there is a down cycle... this is a down cycle in our economy... I plan on taking slight advantage of it by getting a home loan this year to build a house on some land that we have... this house will, God willing, be the last house I ever live in... I'd like to think that I'm going to build it big enough and strong enough to withstand anything that nature or the future can throw at it... whether that be strong winds, fires or children and all their friends... but the future is uncertain and so is this economy... where are we going? "down" is the answer... for now... where will we be in 10 years? I'm betting we will be back in the swing of things... that is, of course, if the Republicans don't demolish the middle class by adding more and more taxes to them while giving bigger and bigger concessions to the already too powerful big businesses that continually ship their operations overseas.

Well said.
It is and has always been cyclic. The overall graph goes up and up with some downs in between. But in the long term houses/property is a good investment. And if you can, NOW is the time to buy.
