Dear Catherine,
I’m a long-time follower of your views….
I’m a self-employed trader/investor who is retired from a +25 year career as an independent trucker. I regularly read Shah Gilani’s essays and would like to know your opinion on his solutions to our national housing problem. Your experience at HUD would allow you to give a unique take on his proposed solutions which involve federal government programs.
I have attached the link to his June 3, 2011 essay for you. For me, it would be an educational boost to hear your response.

Peace,

The problem is that people need income. If they do not have income, you can re-engineer the housing market all day long and it will do no good.
Step #1 is to STOP draining the equity out of people, households and small business.
There are a lot of steps after that, but no sense talking about them till you are willing to stare #1 in the face.
If we keep draining the equity, perhaps that is a signal as to to where the system REALLY is going.
Best,
Catherine
