The number of culprits is almost infinite. While President Carter started the issue with the community reinvestment act, we all, as Americans, created the issue.

For some strange reason we believe that all Americans deserve to own a home, have children and health care. The result is that we forced banks to make poor loans. We tax working people ever more and then ask them to give health care to the laziest portion of society at the expense of our children.

There is no right to own a home. There is no right to a living wage or health care. When we make false "rights" for people, we take away the needed drive to push forward. When there is no drive to move forward and a right to the finer things of life. You get chaos and failure. Other countries certainly promote our desire to implode. It makes their lives easier. If America fails, every other country wins. When we wish to make friends with other countries, the easiest way to to promote our failure.

Being greedy and wanting to make friends with other countries is the problem. Everyone is to blame.

Predicting the Housing Bubble?

I’m reading Nate Silver’s outstanding book, “The Signal and the Noise: why so many predictions fail – but some don’t”. Nate Silver, for those unfamiliar is a statistician whose work encompasses everything from baseball statistics to econometrics and political elections. In the 2008 elections, he correctly called the presidential election for 49 out of 50 states, as well as all 35 elections for U.S. Senate seats. So Nate is someone who understands how to analyze huge datasets and come out with accurate predictions. He talks about the U.S. housing bubble, which went largely unreported by the mainstream media and the financial press until it was too late. Does that mean the housing bubble was a complete surprise to everyone when it burst in 2008? Not at all. Silver points out that economist Robert Shiller had written about the housing bubble in his 2000 book, “Irrational Exuberance”. Also, there was Dean Baker with the Center for Economic and Policy Research, who warned of the housing bubble in 2002. In 2005, The Economist, the world-renowned economic newspaper, called the housing bubble the biggest bubble in history. In other words, this housing bubble which spawned or exacerbated a global financial crisis was totally foreseeable. Indeed it was foreseen by many economists who were making their points about it in the literature. One of the criticisms often leveled at those in academia is that they’re out of touch with the true workings of reality. Economists who sit in ivory towers are said to be working with models of the world that have very little in common with the real world. But this is said by those “on the ground”, working in the field. When the predictions of the academic economists proved to be right and the people in the field were taken unawares by the housing bubble, it causes one to question that viewpoint. So perhaps the best course of action for those of us neither on Wall Street or working in the Economics department at a University is to steer somewhere in the middle when it comes to whose models to believe.
