But without these homes foreclosing, then the bleak future of real estate will get even bleaker. What the real estate market needs is movement. If the homes foreclose, then the people who were living there need to move and then the house will be sold by the bank and that means someone will have bought that house and will need to sell theirs.

The big problem right now is greed. People are so used to making money on real estate that they forgot it is a risk.
I work in new home sales and people put money down on a condo 3 years ago. Now that they actually have to close on the homes, they are coming to me and asking me to give them their money back.
I politely let them know that they must close on the home or they will lose their earnest money. That is the point of earnest money after all. Then they say things like "things are tough right now" and I say "I know."
I am just amazed that they think that they should get their money back when they did nothing to prepare for this day.-

That's an indication of a diseased economy, isn't it? One which no longer is driven by real needs, but rather needs constantly increasing consumption. That is the ethic of the cancer cell, and it is killing the Earth, and us.-

Who knows, they may run into you there, sleeping beneath the newspapers, next to the park bench.

Many who have lost everything had no idea it could ever happen. Be thankful for your good fortune and do not tempt fate with your conceit.-

Yes, Natureboy, I'm not immune to life's tragic twists and turns. But then I neither expect nor want government to be there to bail me out, either.

Does it not strike you as the least bit odd that in our nation's history, those who came before us--who took on the wilderness with their bare hands, at risk of life and limb, with minimal protection from the elements, wanted nothing more than to be left alone by the government? Yet today, those who risk nothing, have no such foe before them as the formidable American wilderness, all in the hell they want is Uncle Nanny to give 'em a tit to suckle?
And then these fools pull their American flags out of moth balls to celebrate their ignorance and depravity when Uncle Nanny gets elected.
What a consummate disgrace !!
