Who Bears Personal Responsibility For The Bubble?
One reader has posted a topic idea patiently for several weeks that has a little edge to it. Let's make it more a question of 'fitting' a just deserve to possible personal responsibility for the housing bubble. "My favorite topic is 'What is the most fitting form of punishment for David Lereah?'"
To which another responded, "Game show host."
A reply, "Game show host..for satan."
One was a little more specific, "Used car salesman in Bakersfield."
One reader was more harsh. "You guys are too nice. Food server at a truck stop!"
And this, "Tech support person." Or, "Fluffer."
It's a good question; does anyone have personal responsibility for some part of the housing bubble and what is a fair outcome for the actions taken?
Another reader wants a debate. "My weekend topic suggestion is this: How many housingbubble bloggers would like David Lereah to come here and field our questions?" "If he really believes what he says, he wouldn’t have a problem talking to us, would he? It’s time for the HB blog to debate David Lereah. The stakes have never been higher, the outcome never more unpredictable."
"Would Lereah ‘convert’ us, or would we ‘convert’ him? Would he refuse to come here? And if so, why? I’d like the blog to debate inviting David Lereah here to become an active participant."
"First- we need to debate whether we should invite him here. Then, we need to figure out what to do, based on the consensus. After that, we either invite him- or don’t invite him. And…if he comes here, and kicks our butts- we don’t whine about it."
"I, for one, promise to be civil, and refrain from 'spitballing' if he comes here. From my point of view- it might be an ‘Intervention’. And it just might do some good."
