    Houses were being sold to anyone, illegals, unemployed, criminals. I saw local TV ads $300,000 homes $475 a month the first 5 years. No social security number, or proof of employment, or anything.

    How many people were swinging hammers during the housing boom. Add
    making lumber, concrete, roofing, sales of houses, and so on. A nice smoke screen for outsourcing.

    How many jobs were shipped overseas and nobody noticed.

    Watch the current unemployment skyrocket.

    If we get another four years of rewarding companies that outsource we are all heading to Mexico for work.
