It went from bad to worse some time around 2005, when idiots were buying homes sight unseen as investments. The 'Crats had loosened lending requirements, causing a the housing market to explode. On our annual drive to visit relatives, the lush forests had been bulldozed, and it looked like a dust bowl.
