    Lower housing prices are good for the nation since they allow the nation’s capital to flow into productive assets (like small businesses) instead of the perpetually trading of houses back and forth at ever increasing prices with no mooring to economic fundamentals (i.e., the recent housing bubble).

    Might this be a result of the continued delusional thinking (prevalent throughout SD county, and SoCAl in general) that “it’s always a great time to buy a house,” “Home values always go up,” “Everyone wants to live in SoCal,” etc., etc?

    Funny…and sad at the same time. Must be too much sunshine that cause people to accept such widespread but mistaken beliefs. That would explain the continuing WIPEOUTS in Las Vegas, Arizona and Florida real estate markets, too.
