    -latest-sends-ominous-warning-state-housing-market.html

    Warren Buffett is likely selling his real estate empire -
    the latest warning sign that the property market is in
    dire straits.

    The real estate market has been on the skids in recent
    years. Brokerage companies have attempted to consolidate
    as home sales remain very low.

    Compass, the largest real estate brokerage in the country,
    is in advanced talks to acquire Berkshire Hathaway’s
    HomeServices of America, the fourth-biggest player in
    the industry, according to The Wall Street Journal.

    Buffett, the 94-year-old investment icon known as the
    ‘Oracle of Omaha,’ appears to be stepping back from
    the real estate game.

    The financial details of the potential acquisition
    haven’t been disclosed, but sources say an agreement
    is close, barring any last-minute snags.

    . . .

    Well ... years of prices going up to insane levels,
    higher interest rates, insurance far more difficult
    to get at ANY price, if at all ...... something's
    gonna give.

    Looks like Buffett is sure it's gonna be Real Soon.

    Wasn't THAT long ago we saw a hyper-inflated property >>>>>>>>> bubble pop - and it did a lot of economic damage.
    Maybe the only 'good' thing this time is that a
    greater percentage of properties were bought with
    private cash, not bank loans.

    In any case, nobody learned nothin' ... the prices
    immediately started pushing back up into the
    stratosphere. Pay a million for a cracker-shack ...
    total idiocy, but alas there are a LOT of idiots
    out there.

    'Government' is in a pickle ... bubble-bursting
    DOES cause a lot of national-scale damage, it's
    kind of a 'defense' issue. On the flip, the
    Free Market principle is also important and govt
    micro-management generally means disaster.

    I think he might be right this time.
    Real Estate is basically a supply vs demand commodity but right >>>>>>>> now despite being a low supply and high demand, the cost is way, >>>>>>>> way,
    way,
    out of control and coupled with the high interest rates is at the >>>>>>>> point where it has to collapse.



    What is TRump/Musk doing about that?

    Why should they do anything? It's not the govts proper role or
    function to be in the housing supply/demand business.



    Trump seems to think it is a federal role.

    Then you answered your own question with the article you cited.


    So the housing market IS a federal issue.

    I don't think it is.


    So Trump's promises are a lie.

    No.




    Once again, what is Trump doing about it?

    Did you read the article you posted?

    As compared to lying on the beach looking half dead.
    ROTFLMAO!

    There is no way you can win this one. Trump is like the energizer bunny and Biden is a walking corpse who slept for 4 years. He was even too lazy to sign his own documents meanwhile Trump sat for hours in the oval office signing EO with the press in attendance and simultaneously taking questions from the media.

    You think Biden could manage that?

    Trump's already played golf on 6 days out of the 56 he's been in office.

    And he's playing at his courses, and charging for the rooms where his entourage and secret service detail stay.

    But, if the libs want to nitpick, how about Jill Biden flying back to US on a private jet

    Trump has done more in 2 months than Biden did in 4 years.

    So if YOU were interviewing candidates for a job, which one would you choose? The one who can barely stay awake and is lazy or the workaholic who gets things done?

    You had an economy going nothing but up.

    Unemployment going down.

    Stock markets going up.

    And now you're trying to blame the complete 180 they've all done on Biden.

    Uhm, the constitution. You might have heard about it.


         What does the Constitution say about the

    The same thing it says about vactions in Rehoboth Beach.
    You think that's a flex.

    But compare and contrast the money spent.

    Try comparing the amount of time the POTUS is actually working, the number
    of press conferences, the number of gaggles, etc and then get back to us.
    You're the one making the claim, sunshine...

    Actually I'm not.

    ...Trump is now spending almost EVERY WEEKEND at Mar-a-Lago.

    As compared to lying on the beach looking half dead.
    ROTFLMAO!

    There is no way you can win this one. Trump is like the energizer bunny and
    Biden is a walking corpse who slept for 4 years. He was even too lazy to sign
    his own documents meanwhile Trump sat for hours in the oval office signing EO
    with the press in attendance and simultaneously taking questions from the media.

    The subject was the COST of presidential events, sunshine.

    But I can see why you want to drag away from that.

    "I won't have time to play golf": remember that one?

    Trump's already played golf on 6 days out of the 56 he's been in office. >>>
    And he's playing at his courses, and charging for the rooms where his
    entourage and secret service detail stay.

    Prove it.

    I don't care what POTUS do in their free time, and that includes Biden.
    The person doing the toughest, highest pressure job on earth deserves some R+R.

    You seemed to care when you wrote this:

    'Try comparing the amount of time the POTUS is actually working, the
    number of press conferences, the number of gaggles, etc and then get

    What I am saying is OVERALL, who is working on the clock vs who is calling a LID
    every other day?
    But, if the libs want to nitpick, how about Jill Biden flying back to US on a private jet
    so she could attend Hunter's hearings and then back again.
    Who paid for that?

    I don't know.

    Did it even happen?


    Trump has done more in 2 months than Biden did in 4 years.

    To destroy your democracy? Absolutely.

    Explain how.

    Unlike Biden, Trump doesn't sleep all day.

    So if YOU were interviewing candidates for a job, which one would you choose?
    The one who can barely stay awake and is lazy or the workaholic who gets things done?
    You had an economy going nothing but up.

    Unemployment going down.

    Stock markets going up.

    And now you're trying to blame the complete 180 they've all done on Biden.

    You really don't get it do you?

    I am simply rebutting your garbage.
    If you didn't bring up the topic I wouldn't care.
    But you did, so live with it or prove your point.

    I don't know.

    Stop watching MSNBC and maybe you will.
    Why did the WH feel the need to hide/shelter Biden?
    Why was he unable have a single, or no press conference or meeting per day?
    All well known.
    Meanwhile Trump regularly has conferences on weekends or late at night from Mar-A Lago.
    Ever see Biden give a presser from the beach?
    The stupid fucker couldn't even carry his own beach chair.



    Did it even happen?

    Yes.
    I've posted it before.
    Look it up.


    Trump has done more in 2 months than Biden did in 4 years.

    To destroy your democracy? Absolutely.

    So giving states back their rights and eliminating waste, fraud, and
    duplicity is destroying democracy?

    How?

    You are parroting the media.

    Unlike Biden, Trump doesn't sleep all day.

    So if YOU were interviewing candidates for a job, which one would you choose?
    The one who can barely stay awake and is lazy or the workaholic who gets things done?
    You had an economy going nothing but up.

    ROTFLMAO!
    Biden turned the economy into a train wreck.
    You can quote all the studies you wish but the people who are suffering
    didn't fall for it.
    They realized that under Biden they were getting screwed.
    Why do you think even Biden's own handlers advised him to stop talking about Bidenomics.

    BTW you might want to take a look a inflation, jobs for AMERICANS created, gasoline prices and
    yes the famous egg prices.


    Unemployment going down.

    Stock markets going up.

    And now you're trying to blame the complete 180 they've all done on Biden.

    Yawn.
    Same old talking points.
    See above.

    worth 23 million after 4 years.

    Yep.
    Same as the other crooks in government.
    Why do you think the democrats are in a frenzy attacking cost cutting measures when the government is bleeding debt.

    They would have been better off shutting up but they didn't and now
    they have revealed their hand.

    You do not care if the Treasury is billed for all the hotel bills
    when it is his hotel.

    We are paying him to go golfing.

    Employment laws are divided between exempt (professional) and
    nonexempt (hourly wages).

    Nonexempt is most people who have a number of protections such
    overtime, breaks during work, etc. They are paid at an hourly rate
    for hours worked.

    Exempt workers have few protections and are paid at a yearly rate.
    When they work, how long, how little, what vacations, are
    negotiated with the employer. They do not have to work a 40 hour
    week. They do not get overtime.

    Biden is a walking corpse who slept for 4 years. He was even too lazy to sign
    his own documents meanwhile Trump sat for hours in the oval office signing EO
    with the press in attendance and simultaneously taking questions from the media.

    The subject was the COST of presidential events, sunshine.

    But I can see why you want to drag away from that.

    "I won't have time to play golf": remember that one?

    Trump's already played golf on 6 days out of the 56 he's been in office.

    And he's playing at his courses, and charging for the rooms where his >>>>> entourage and secret service detail stay.

    Prove it.

    I don't care what POTUS do in their free time, and that includes Biden. >>> The person doing the toughest, highest pressure job on earth deserves some R+R.

    You seemed to care when you wrote this:

    'Try comparing the amount of time the POTUS is actually working, the
    number of press conferences, the number of gaggles, etc and then get
    back to us.'



    What I am saying is OVERALL, who is working on the clock vs who is calling a LID
    every other day?
    But, if the libs want to nitpick, how about Jill Biden flying back to US on a private jet
    so she could attend Hunter's hearings and then back again.
    Who paid for that?

    I don't know.

    Did it even happen?


    Trump has done more in 2 months than Biden did in 4 years.

    To destroy your democracy? Absolutely.

    Explain how.

    Overriding the law.

    Ignoring the rulings of legitimate courts.

    Cleaning house and doing his job.


    Unlike Biden, Trump doesn't sleep all day.

    So if YOU were interviewing candidates for a job, which one would you choose?
    The one who can barely stay awake and is lazy or the workaholic who gets things done?
    You had an economy going nothing but up.

    Unemployment going down.

    Stock markets going up.

    And now you're trying to blame the complete 180 they've all done on Biden.

    You really don't get it do you?
    Why don't you explain it to me?

    and away he runs from his statement

    You do not care if the Treasury is billed for all the hotel bills
    when it is his hotel.

    We are paying him to go golfing.

    Employment laws are divided between exempt (professional) and
    nonexempt (hourly wages).

    Nonexempt is most people who have a number of protections such
    overtime, breaks during work, etc. They are paid at an hourly rate
    for hours worked.

    Exempt workers have few protections and are paid at a yearly rate.
    When they work, how long, how little, what vacations, are
    negotiated with the employer. They do not have to work a 40 hour
    week. They do not get overtime.

    Did we ever pay for any of Joes vacations? Oh and do you have receipts?
