"dhamiltony2k5" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > akasha_108 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:udio". Hi doug, I sense your broad frustration. That housing discussions is filling up FFL may be a bit of an exageration. The recent thread has 18 posts. Hardly competes with "Ostrich Meat", and does not far exceed "Would You let Gates be Born" or "Home Recording Studio" But I agree, relevance to FF, or TMers lives, (here or there, or anywhere) or spiritual matters are the most sought and appealing topics on FFL. IMO, the potential housing bubble is relevant to relevance to FF, and TMers lives. As I posted yesterday, it could have a sizeable impact on mortgage rates (which will affect the salability of FF housing), national employment and income (which will affect the many FF business that have a national clientele) and potenital in and out migration of FF. On the latter, as home prices in hot markets (West Coast, East Coast, Florida, etc) and quite warm markets (many metro areas) -- people throughout the country have the option to cash out and with the proceeds could buy quite nice -- better tan they left, FF properties in cash. And participate in what you have been nicely pointing out -- an ambiance and community is similar to Boulder, Ashville, etc -- but in a smaller town context. On the other hand, if the bubble deflates repidly (compared to 15-20 year slow "swish") homes in many attractive (beach, mountain etc) areas may be at 30-50% of current prices. At a percieved bottom. Many who have cash in FF, may decide to venture out and buy at the bottom of the market. And get some environmental ammenities they have not had in FF. And a rapid bubble deflation could cause some degree of disruption and suffering (nothing of the scale of Off's scenarios). I always thought compassion and assistance was part of the FF seva ethic -- perhaps not. But I get your point. For whatever reasons, you and others percieve the relativly small number of housing posts as "filling" up FFL. A good scapegoat for the agreed demise of quality of FFL in the past year, relative to its golden years. The current demise of quality of FFL relative to its golden years has made me ponder. It may be time to move on. To find a group more in synch with my interests. I may lurk occaisionally, but for reasons of interest and time, I think I will moeve on. FFL has been great. I have learned a lot. Best of Luck. > Yes, you have succeeded to fill up the FFL list with exacting 'almost anything', as the FFL home page encourages. Why is the topic here?

Best of luck to you off, may you prosper in the current housing market and may you get your massive hallucinations under control.

Any rentals that work would soon turn to slums since landlords would squeeze as many of the now low paying renters into the houses as possible. Unemployment is high under Akasha's scenario also. So milliopns of people would suddenly not be able to live the life they are accustomed to . There would be not enough money from taxes to pay for the police and army, and the black hole of Iraq would suck up any excess. A break-down in law and order would occur and corruption among police and politicians would be rife. Under Akasha's scenario, not mine, The already millions of dirt poor immigrants in US would now have nothing, but would take the opportunity to re-organize themselves and become a volatile and unpredictable force within the breaking down society. If the US pulls out of Iraq before it is a stable dictatorship again, the middle east will meltdown and oil prices will skyrocket. All the people who have been moving to the East and West coasts of the US, raising the population there, would be in a 1930's depression-like situation. While the now depopulating midwest would suffer loss of income from farming and other business. Oil prices would stifle the midwest to some extent. Next (under Akasha's scenario, not mine), the Chinese would make their move to start to buy or take over parts of the US based on the massive debt the US owes them. The US military would be in dissarray and corrupt due to lack of funding, and a better organised nation will have to take control someohow (directly or indirectly) of the dangerous US armeries. The greatest superpower on earth would have imploded. However (under Akasha's scenario, not mine), the midwest would most likely be the least affected area since it is the least populated and those from the West and East coast, who could do so, would move to the Midwest in droves to escape the chaos elswhere. They would also make life-changing decisions and (under Akasha's scenario, not mine), masses of them would move to Fairfield seeking a better way than before. Thus DIRECTLY impacting Fairfieldin a good way. Fairfielders would welcome them and they would learn the ways of the enlightened and house prices and business across the midwest would take off to be mecca that many east and west coasters would now seek. This is the relevance to Fairfield that Akasha is trying to convey. However, how many people here think that this scenario or a version of it will happen? If you think some of it will happen please pinpoint which aspects you think are feasible. Personally , I am with you, it is not a good place on FFL to discuss in such great swaths of cut and paste articles the hypothetical housing bubble bust, nor the hypothetical bird flu disaster.
