The problem is the government thinks everyone needs to own a house. Renting a house or an apartment is a perfectly reasonable alternative, but nobody in government wants to believe that.

Regulation to a certain degree is good.

But economically it's impossible.
Good luck living in your dream world where everyone has a house.

That's the point. People have been buying houses for years, adding taxes or regulations probably isn't going to change much, it's the idea of living large that sort of made people buy houses they couldn't afford.
Combined with the fact that banks were willing to give loans to these idiots.

I'm still blaming it on the companies being idiots

Apartments/condos are still housing.

No, it's houses in general. They can't afford a fucking house.
Like Bernie Madoff
[QUOTE=Wayword;23268755]Apartments/condos are still housing.[/QUOTE]
Not everyone can live in a house.

That's what I just said.

Everyone's at fault really. The government for allowing it to happen and companies for doing it.
[QUOTE=zombiefreak;23268766]Not everyone can live in a house.[/QUOTE]
Yes. I know.
[QUOTE=Wayword;23268722]Not entirely true and you know that.[/QUOTE]

sounds like deregulation is bad
[QUOTE=zombiefreak;23268653]
Regulation caused the housing market to burst.

addendum: black is white and up is down. The market didn't burst after one of the most intense periods of market de-regulation in american history. Everything is just an illusion here at club silencio
[QUOTE=zombiefreak;23268766]Not everyone can live in a house.[/QUOTE]
That's why he said Apartments and Condos are still places for people to live in...

For one, the hijackers were Muslim.
So it's not like Islam had NOTHING to do with it.
You can go on further to say they were extremists, but the argument starts there.

However, all the people that followed are recruited under the guise that they are doing their religion a good deed.
So even if the conflict is political in nature, the religion aspect isn't irrelevant.
The government is a failure...
Have fun with corporate America 2012!

[QUOTE=Habsburg;23268796]sounds like deregulation is bad[/QUOTE]
Regulation can be good or bad. It can limit the companies too much, or give them too much freedom. In the case of the stock market crash, there wasn't enough. The response of buying out the companies that were failing was perhaps too much regulation, and only resulted in a short term fix that led to massive debt without entirely fixing the problem.

however the religion itself doesn't endorse it, nor is terrorism in any way a mainstream part of Islam. Blaming terrorism on Islam is stupid because it's a lot more complicated than that.

A group of radical Muslims attacks the USA and Islam is not at all a part of it? Hard to believe.
