Floods wreak havoc in Germany
Some parts of Dresden can barely be seen
A dam has burst in south-eastern Germany as flood waters sweep northwards
from the Czech Republic, spreading chaos in Europe's worst floods for more
than a century.
The dam at Bitterfeld collapsed around midday, sending the Mulde River
cascading towards the town, whose 16,000 inhabitants are being urgently
evacuated.
A large chemical plant at Bitterfeld is unlikely to be flooded, the

What jobs?
Jobs which wouldn't have existed in the first place if the bubble wasn't
created?
People need to be realistic here.
The bubble had been ballooned for 3 decades, brought on a lot of jobs with
it. Now the bubble burst, jobs that came along were trimmed off.
To get those jobs back, the economy need to blow another bubble, or
introduce new industry with technical innovations. Either way, it won't be
easy to get per-recession 6-7% unemployment rate.
8% could be a reasonable one. |

加国楼市有多稳固?与其口水战，不如通过回顾过去30年出现两次大调整，把目前市场环境与当时经济环境比较，结合美国楼市相关资讯，再由业内人士现身说法，条分缕析，当有助读者认清楼市发展的真相。
