If you couldn't read this recession by yourself, you are within the same census of $5.50 per hour worker that buys a $275,000 house. Basic middle-class housing prices became so absurd, that the it was out of the middle-class's reach, yet the middle-class was still buying. I called this sub-prime bubble out in 2006 when my house bubbled to $300k after buying it at $180k...and this was before I even knew what bear or bull meant.

Cutting the Fed Rate over and over again in order to keep the rich from having bad economic times is what caused these problems. You can't continuously manipulate the Fed Rate and NOT allow the free market economy to run it's course. If you keep trying to suppress bad economic news from external sources the market never corrects. Then, by the end, when you can't cut rates anymore, when they're at 1% or 1.5% your correction will have to be huge and it will be difficult economic times.
