So we all agree on a few things...

1) inventory is at or near all time lows
2) interest rates are low, near all time lows
3) prices are high as bubble prices in 2006
4) affordability is horrible
5) investors are backing off
6) wages are not increasing much

Arent these all arguments to suggest that prices have no where to go but down since each of these factors will likely not be maintained at these levels?

Bitcoins arent the future? says

You're right, there are a lot of these. Most of them copied the code from bitcoin.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cryptocurrencies

"As of December 2013, all except Ripple are based on the ideas and code of Bitcoin. By December 2013 there were more than 60 cryptocurrencies available for trade in online markets."

If you're familiar with it, Ripple is kind of like Bitcoin + Mt.Gox combined.

From what I see so far, its an awesome ForEx trading platform, if nothing else.

They are all based on nothing BUT the payment platform is very useful
There seems to be no need widespread need to hold or use these currencies other than for spec purposes. There will probably be a lot of price appreciation until the market gets saturated

Mark D says

interest are going to go up from here. historically speaking, 4.5% is very low.

the rise in interest didn't cause prices to drop so why wait?

i personally think prices go won't go up much next year if any. but they sure as hell won't go down with this level of low inventory.

I am assuming by all your posts that you are a real estate agent. The posts remind me of the ads from back when I was a kid for used car lots.

But what you all have to remember is that fake crying, with hyperventilation, no tears and no redness of eyes in the absense of tears is not debunkable. You cannot debunk fake crying.

Therefore the entire thing was a hoax. If someone died that is terrible and makes it even more wicked, but I don't believe that was the case.

But deceiving the American public like this is inexcusable. These crisis actors will live the rest of their lives being confronted by the millions of people who know they are scum.

The confrontation should not be meant to harm them as that will make liars into martyrs. No, it should be confrontation for the purpose of humiliation.

So when are you going to Sandy Hook for this 'confrontation?' Do you have a video camera?

Mark D says

women were happier before and so were Blacks that were treated well.

Sorry, but that's some fucked-ass motherless motherfucking bullshit.

JodyChunder says

Well fuck me, he might not have employed the exact words Civil and Rights, but it's not exactly a gross inference. He's working from a tea party tear sheet.

he was never asked about CR.. all he did was speak that in his town in LA, black
people were godly and respected. your applying a wide brush stroke across all
of Southern States and White people without exception.

JodyChunder says

As for entitlements and all that jazz...that's just a hobby horse for redneck nerds to gas on about. If Americans really gave a fuck about entitlements and welfare, nobody would ever use a bank or buy a Harley, or eat at McDonalds. With all due repsect, Thomas, what a ripe crock of shit.

No, I'm speaking empirically. I think this gentleman must be conflating stoicism or resignation or Stockhausen syndrome with Godliness. None of which vindicates pre-civil rights-era mistreatment of blacks in America.

I once beat the living shit out of a shithead kid I knew who was getting drunk and beating his wife and two boys. I ended up in county, and it was his WIFE who pressed charges. I still think I did the right thing.

JodyChunder says

Pros:

1.) two beautiful coastlines (including Siesta Key and various surfable inlets) less than an hour away.

2.) beautiful FLA snatch everywhere

3.) low-ish cost of living/no state tax/low property tax

4.) mild winters

5.) cheap international flights from OIA.

very very true...

JodyChunder says

3.) intense humidity

na.. thats a plus.. need to get my pores cleaned out.. great for detox..

Exactly. This is what Robertson was exposed to during childhood by the rabid liberal hollywood elite. Fuck up all their childhoods by forcefucking archie bunker up their ass....
What did you expect when the likes of Archie Bunker is what hollywood produced for your children to consume?

anonymous says

Phil Robertson sounds a bit like Archie Bunker:

Archie Bunker: "Well, let me tell you one thing about Richard E. Nixon. He knows how to keep his wife, Pat, home. Roosevelt could never do that with Eleanor. She was always out on the loose. Running around with the coloreds. Tellin' 'em they was gettin' the short end of the stick. She was the one who discovered the coloreds in this country; we never knew they was there!"

It is good for the skin! The desert's withered me over the years.

bgamall4 says

Why do we need to go to Sandy Hook, as if you can't tell it was a hoax without going?

Oh, I think you need to go. Nothing like personal contact with those you are accusing of pretending their children were murdered or faking seeing all those bodies in the case of the emergency services.

bgamall4 says

I don't need to go anywhere if I have visual evidence proving my case.

You have visual evidence proving the exact opposite.

bgamall4 says

When God opens those books determining who gets eternal life and who spends an eternity suffering for their deeds, I will meet you face to face. And you will not like that. http://newcovenanttheology.com

That's very Christian of you.

Perhaps you'd care to explain why you have now deleted the following post TWICE:

A .223-caliber Bushmaster XM15-E2S rifle is 6Ibs 7oz.
A loaded 10mm Glock 20SF weighs just under 40oz.
A 9mm SIG Sauer P226 weighs 32oz with an empty clip.
Add to that the ammunition (he wasn't carrying anything else), and I think you can see how he physically did it.

I take it that actual facts are an annoyance to you.

bgamall4 says

There is an election by grace. And truth is, I am not happy about it for most people. For you, well, if the power of the gospel does not save you, I won't be sad. That is fact, Bigsby. Just like Jonah, if God were to call you by grace, I would be grumpy.

Yes, yes, and all because I disagree with your lunatic conspiracy theories. Like I said, very Christian of you.

Its a good job I'm an atheist. If I was you though, I'd be very worried about what was coming. I wonder how forgiving your God is of people who falsely accuse so many people of faking their own childrens' deaths.

bgamall4 says

Here are the happy faces at Sandy Hook, and why I don't think people died. Or maybe these folks are just happy that they are now millionaires for doing a wicked hoax:

That is a classic piece of 'evidence' from you. Risible even by your standards. I wonder why the person didn't include the audio in that video...

Imagine your child had been murdered. Imagine you are being interviewed by CNN days, weeks or months later. Imagine they ask you a question... say 'what is your most cherished memory of your child.' What exactly do you think your reaction would be?

Context (and audio) help you know Bgamall, though obviously they don't help your 'argument.'

you apparently don't read much or are in denial.

bgamall4 says

BTW, as for being a Christian, unbelief is the greatest sin. That is the sin that all others come from. Unbelief is fixed by divine intervention in the lives of the elect while most of the world never gets that break. That is just the way it is. http://www.newcovenanttheology.com/p/scriptures-and-personal-confession-of.html

I'm an atheist so I couldn't care less what particular religious doctrine you've taken on board. You're the one that needs to pay closer attention to the beliefs you supposedly hold dear.

bgamall4 says

They are obvious hand signals. What is it that you don't understand?

Yeah, every time a mother strokes a child's hair it's a clear signal sent straight from the neocon-zionist overlords. Or not.

Mark D says

No, I'm simply not a racist dickbag.

Bozo's they have the same mole. In the same place. Same odd lips, same eyes, same eyebrows, same nose.

Ah, I see you went back in the thread and deleted my picture of Kaitlin with her mouth open that shows her teeth are completely different, then posted a picture of her with her mouth closed. You still fail to explain the complete difference of the chins. And now, apparently all you have to stand on is a blurry dot on the photo. Wow, so weak. You are a fraud and a troll.

What makes you think I'm angry? I'm happy as a clam over here. But you're an out-n-out racist -- a racist who only thinly varnishes his open hatreds in think tank talking points in an effort to lend them more gravity. It doesn't work; anyone with eyes can see your spots, leopard.

Homeboy says

The question was, why would they PUBLISH a picture of the actress if they planned to use her to impersonate someone else?

She was on the team. Maybe they wanted to see how many stupid people like you there are. And there are lots.

THAT'S your answer? Dude, you really haven't thought this through, have you?

Try to reason with me Bigsby. Clearly this lady was givine hand signals to her child:

several of the mom's hand movements are consistent with hand signals.

also the reporters' questions are extremely guiding.

They're consistent with a mother stroking her child's hair. And putting her arm around her. Amazing stuff.

And especially convincing was 'moving your coat means going through the building.' Ha, ha, ha.

What about 'up and down means lock down.' Eh?

I see a pattern here. Whatever the child says just after her mother moves her hand is what the hand movement means. Incredible. Incredibly stupid that is. I mean for crying out loud how desperate are you lot. This is a young child presumably surrounded by a large number of people being interviewed for TV. And you lot think she's parsing hand movements from her mother? Good fucking grief.

Mark D says

They're interviewing a child. Were you expecting an interrogation?

Racism has a different definition for white people in this country than anyone else.
That's not a talking point it's the Goddamn truth.

In fact Obama has been the only openly racist President since LBJ.

@bgamall - you'll likely need more evidence to prove those two women are the same person. Plus, there's a ton of other, more sound evidence that this event was not what it seemed. You're right about that picture of Emilie...if anyone can't see it's photoshopped, they're ignorant. Emilie's right arm is WAY TOO LONG (and cockeyed like you said). Plus, there are several other clearly photoshopped pics of the Parker family.

Give it another 9-10 generations...we will have to grow out of it over the long haul....progress is being made, but at a snails pace..

You have no evidence to back this up.

Diversity in white countries is very expensive and not beneficial for the white citizens and very inexpensive and very beneficial for the nonwhites. Once the white money runs out, things will go back to the way they were not even 50 years ago: racial ethno-states.

Diversity in nonwhite countries is non existant.

You don't need to be rude and unartful. Clearly you feel being a real estate agent is an insult. I was merely indicating the obvious that you seem very invested in seeing people buy. Why if you are not a real estate agent? Are you heavily invested?

WOW! The UNtrustworthy are certainly in control of what information is apparent to the people!

Say hey! This was in the Wall Street Journal on March 30, 1999. Note "... how much it will buy."

Holy cow/interesting/compelling ...!

"More" evidence? There was never ANY evidence to start with.

Ahhh, poor Mark, he may get a chance to mature someday. :-)

Yo wog.
Since the real estate market in the US has NEVER behaved as you are saying that it is going to, i.e., significant appreciation in the absence of job growth or meaningful economic growth, and in the face of rising interest rates, what you are saying is the ever precarious "THIS TIME IS DIFFERENT".
That phrase is always a sphincter tightener if one has money on the Pass Line.

As I have noted before, you Sir, are quite the Baller.
