I guess your November decision comes down to who deserves the govt welfare....the people or the corporations.

All Free-Market Economies respire or breathe. No two countries or economic entities are expected to synchronize and perform the same. There are events that trigger economic synchronization, which eventually works its way out.

Deregulation has its ups and downs.

The most unfortunate economic force for the real estate industry is the cost of money, itself, because most homes are financed, and sellers know that more profit is possible when lenders can borrow more money at cheaper repayment rates.

Using a capital gains tax especially designed for real estate can regulate the market fluctuations and take the greed out the industry. The incentive to overcharge for the real estate and the money to pay for it, has to be removed from the equation to stablize the industry.

Greed caused the industry to falter and nearly fail. Only taxes can curb greed. Most consumers prefer market stablizing tax codes over free-falling failures.

Greed itself is the prime force that creates the greatest demand for government. The more greed, the more government is required.
