Oh, the Drama!

Typical leftwing, handwring "Chicken Littling". This story reads like a campaign speech from Obama...or Hillary, for that matter.

We're only about 20 points from the Great Depression's unemplyment numbers and only 95% of the total mortgages are current.

It's ironic that the left called for higher gas prices years ago (Al Gore "Earth in the Balance") to stimulate conservation. Well, they got their wish and now "the sky is falling".
