2298 [lbo-talk] Another thing about Vivaldi.... -- rank: 1000
On Aug 30, 2011, at 6:11 PM, 123hop at comcast.net wrote: > But, actually, I think you either like Beethoven or you like Mozart.

On Aug 29, 2011, at 5:18 PM, SA wrote: > If the causes of the housing bubble were so contingent and specific, why have there been so many other credit-fueled property bubbles throughout history? In the Panic of 1837 there were no CDOs, MBS, S&P/Moody's, zoning laws, etc, but the basic story was the same. That's why I'm dissatisfied with attempts to explain the bubble by pointing at contingent details like those, either singly or combined. They're just the Bush-era epiphenomenal manifestat ...
