Do you think everyone from the past voted Republican? Did they all get together and decide to create a housing bubble knowing what would happen? Really, that does not reflect any kind of reality at all. People live according to their situations, the economic situation that unfolded was due to regular pressures and reactions and not some grand conspiracy by everyone around the age of 50 to fuck over the next generation. The average person wants to work a good job and get paid well for it. The average person wants to own a house. The average person wants to be able to support a family and put their kids through college. The average person knew nothing about the housing bubble or climate change in the 80s and 90s. You can dismiss these basic human needs as people acting like "hedonistic chuds" but it's a weak argument. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard! |
