Q: Why the houses that the banks have for sale generate an oversupply, if they are the same houses that prevoiusly were on the market (and that no one would have bought in the first place if it weren't for banks intervention)?

Don't forget that when Obama bailed out the too big to fail, the "bomb" was passed back to the tax payer. And the too big to fail where rich once again.

@iDeathpool Sweden is getting older as well and the way it looks today, there's no plan on how it's going to work out in 60 years, even though it's paid for through taxes. Don't you think that not bailing them out would scare them from taking the stupid risks of loaning poor people money? It sounds to me like people needs to take more responsibility for their own actions - where, to whom and when they invest. If the government helps cleans up for everybody, the money will run out.

[iDeathpool]

@ohedd social security is not really a big problem as long as people pay more taxses than they use social (even countries with high social like Sweden still keep this proportion, in the US social security is very low in comparison to Europe). and bailing out banks using public money does suck, but sadly is nesesery if we don't want a crysis like in the '30 - people literaly not having money for food. the fiscal responsibility of banks (AND the people) is a topic for a whole separate forum.

[ohedd]

@iDeathpool Ah you're right. And then it's the whole issue of paying for everyone's social security when they get old.. We need to make sure we don't bail out the banks to keep them from making the mistakes of loaning money to irresponsile people, because they are pretty much guaranteed a bail-out from the government at this point. Also lower taxes so people can afford to save their money and pay for their social security.

[iDeathpool]

@ohedd the way of stopping this is either re-thinking the whole system, or somehow increasing the number of people in some country by letting in immigrants, or encouraging cityzens to have more children.

[iDeathpool]

@ohedd the birth rates are declining in US and Europe. it means the demand for houses drops (since there are no people to live in houses). the house prices drop, so they are sold cheaper. since they are sold cheaper, investors are already loosing money, meaning that they have to cut spending in their other investments such as car factories ETC. making people loose their jobs. and a person without a job is not able to pay for his house and looses it to the bank. it's a spiral of credit.

[ohedd]

Where did it go wrong then? When loans were given to irresponsible people? How to stop doing that?
