It is an established fact that one of the biggest drivers for the insane monetary policies of the Federal Reserve since the financial crash of 2008 was trying to save the crashing housing market. The Fed's zero interest rate policy has driven mortgage rates to historical lows below 4%, while the bank bailouts were designed, in part, to give lenders the capital to continue making home loans so the market wouldn't implode completely. The results have been, shall we say, less than impressive given that home sales and home prices remain mired near their post crash lows. As if record low mortgage rates were not enough to entice buyers back into the market, in the media there have been repeated calls that "the bottom is in" on housing as a means of trying to convince people that they are no longer risk of losing money on their "investment."
The Downward Spiral
Whether we like or not we are in a war with Islam Islam has been at war with the Western world for fourteen centuries — since its inception. Muslims all over the world still consider themselves to be at war with non-Muslims; this is why Islam refers to us as Dar al-Harb, the “House of War”. The West, however, has forgotten that this war exists. We continue to labor under the illusion that Islam is an ordinary religion, like Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism.

Los que hemos vivido un poco más de años y experimentamos cierta avidez por la información, podemos testificar el volumen de ignorancia con que nos enfrentábamos a los acontecimientos. “Vds. se creen propietarios de la opinión pública, y no, son propietarios de la opinión publicada. La opinión pública es la de nuestros pueblos” -le dijo el presidente de Ecuador a Ana Pastor, conductora de TVE- . La venganza vino en la manipulación de sus palabras irónicas sobre Human Right Watch.

Jason Gooljar: The Working Families Party Man - Fighting in the Class War
Now, one set of donors the party was banking on—organized labor—says it won’t help pay for the event or will scale back contributions, partly because it is upset that the convention will be in a state considered unfriendly to unions. It was a foolish move to have held the convention in North Carolina in the first place. Can you honestly blame the AFL-CIO and others for not wanting to give to this convention? Now I applaud the DNC for not allowing corporate donations, but you alienated yourself from what should be your natural allies. There’s a reason why Trumka said earlier last year that the AFL-CIO would no longer just march in lockstep with the Democrats. Looks like the party is going to find out what that means.
