The Fed sets the interest rates, and the rate changes are what has caused the housing bubble to expand, then contract, all according to plan. It's just not a plan that makes YOU better off. They want it so that you'll scream for more help, more regulations, more government. Then they'll give it to you. One passage, maybe one sentence, dealing with the actual problem, which will give the bill it's name. And fifty passages about taking more and more power, all passed democratically, by vote. Yeah, right. They are in control. The Fed sets the interest rates, and the rate changes are what has caused the housing bubble to expand, then contract, all according to plan.
