Debate House Prices

This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics.

  • What has this got to do with anything in the topic of the thread?

    If you want to say something apposite regarding quantitative easing then by all means do so.

    Otherwise I think it has been made more than clear, that the majority of the boards users are thoroughly sick of picking through these pointless arguments that contribute nothing other than pettiness.

    Grow up.

    Pickles asked a question, I answered it. End of.

    I'm tired of the arguments too, but I'm even more tired of the use of multiple usernames that ruin the debate. Good luck with the QE debate.

    When they say it'll be 'disastrous', what they mean is they havn't got a clue, but read somewhere that it will be.


    Yes, any objective balanced mind seeks to look at all the arguments rather than filtering out those that do not fit. Progress has always been based on enlightened new thinking rather than the principal of conserving whats gone before.

    I'm not 100% on this topic, so I'll admit I definitely don't know the ins and outs, but if it'll be so "disastrous", why does the MPC think it a good idea?

    They think that Brown wishes to inflate away our debt :D
