  By my math that's over $2 Trillion in bribes since 1989.

  The massive volume of 'shadow inventory' has to affect prices. Price (can I afford it?) and credit (Do I qualify to afford it?) are the two biggest factors affecting the "recovery." I don't see how there can be any price stability until the shadow is gone. Good article at dr. housing bubble on the shadow picture:

  The system is broken.

  But as the gap widens, what do we do about it? I'm a firm believer in capitalism and don't think we can tax the crap out of the guys making big money because they are also creating lot's of jobs. Yet, somewhere along the line greed has taken over. Selfishness rules. At the same time, for this government to say that they are innocent in this whole thing is a joke. Policies established by countless administrations, including the current one, have allowed this to happen.

  There is a reason that politics and business shouldn't mix. There is a reason that strict term limits should be instituted and enforced. Politics should be a short term service to your country and a sacrifice for a time. When you are done, go back to work. What a sad, sad state we are in. That rich businessmen and rich politicians continue to sleep in the same bed cannot bode well for the balance of the people.
