Steve - another thanks for lighting a candle in the darkness.
Here in my corner of New England I see many For Sale signs, but there's no feel of impending doom. Houses are still being bought and sold, altho' at a slower rate than in recent years. And the frequent talk of "another blow to us poor taxpayers" raises hackles, but in truth signifies almost nothing.
Of course, media will push whatever headlines will grab more eyeballs for the sponsors' adverts. Not that news coverage is much different now from what it's been over the last two hundred years.
