既然房价这么低，美国人为何不买房？

奥巴马如果真的能推出医疗改革，比降低失业率影响深远多了。

与上一个周期最低点相比，美国现在的房价还很高吧?

相比之下，加拿大的 HOUSING PRICE 太高了。你不能忽略这一事实。

今天的消息说，美国的房价还要再跌：Our Worst Fears Are Coming True: California Housing Is Double-Dipping Right Now The housing market, a huge engine of the U.S. economy via both direct spending and the wealth effect, is rolling over and heading for a double-dip. This despite the fact that the government is still spending money hand over foot to keep house prices propped up.In a week or so, the Fed is supposed to begin withdrawing some of this housing subsidy by winding up its mortgage-buying program. The Fed may or may not actually do this, but if it does, this move could further depress the housing market. And that, in turn, could put more pressure on strapped consumers who can no longer borrow from home-equity lines to fund current spending, no longer feel rich, don't have much borrowing capacity, and, often, no longer have jobs. (And consumers still account for more than 70% of spending in the economy).

买房的人一点都不少，特别是喜欢存钱的亚洲人，正在逢低入场；只是，卖房的人似乎更多，特别是那些买了大房子而又失业的或即将失业的人。
