Recessions are the inevitable outfall from years of using BS justifications and speculation to artificially stimulate the economy. The recession comes when we can no longer hide the reality of what has actually been happening over the prior 7-10 years (on average).

This is shaping up just like 2008. The Fed just lowered interest rates in the usual, telltale attempt to prop up home sales before the bubble pops. Meanwhile, the only ones taking advantage are wealthy people investing in rental properties so they can screw over the people who can't afford a mortgage (or are too smart to enter into one with homes at peak value) with inflated rental rates.

This, too, shall pass, and yet another recession will follow. Same $hit....
