> a bunch of other financial products are also tied to them, so falling house prices cause a mess cascading beyond just the real-estate market That's an argument for gradually deflating housing prices, assuming they are overpriced. If people are running businesses and preparing for retirement with faulty price projections in mind, I don't see why others (people who don't own homes, mind you) should be forever penalized because the system is already stacked against them.
