"Buying a home wouldn't make much sense if house prices were likely to decline further; no one wants to catch a falling knife." (ID 34909)

(ID 34911)
"Past experience with fiscal austerity at home and overseas strongly suggests that it is best for the economy's long-run performance to restrain government spending rather than raise taxes." (ID 34913)
