As Wall Street Journal reports…. Half of Americans can’t afford their house

Over half of Americans (52%) have had to make at least one major sacrifice in order to cover their rent or mortgage over the last three years, according to the “How Housing Matters Survey,” which was commissioned by the nonprofit John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation and carried out by Hart Research Associates. These sacrifices include getting a second job, deferring saving for retirement, cutting back on health care, running up credit card debt, or even moving to a less safe neighborhood or one with worse schools.

If you need someone to blame I have got a few people for you. You can start with Greenspan, Bernanke, Yellen, Clinton, Bush, Obama and everyone in the US Congress/Senate over the last 20 years. All of them were, more or less, directly responsible for perpetrating this massive financial crime against the American people.

While you might have enjoyed your house going up in value 500% over the last 15 years you will not enjoy what happens next. As the chart above illustrate, the “Dead Cat Bounce” in real estate prices is almost over and the market is rolling over. As predicted here, Real Estate Collapse 2.0 Why, How & When  the real estate market is about to suffer a massive Stage #3 correction. By the time it’s over, most Americans should be able to afford a house…again. I can’t wait.
