The other day I caught the tail end of a press conference with Obama's press secretary making an analogy about a house fire as it relates to our economy. He sounded "so smart" proclaiming that when your house is on fire you don't have the luxury of deciding which rooms to save... you have to drench the whole house to stop the fire. I guess this was to justify the overspending to save our economy. Well I have an opposing analogy for the press secretary. If the house is burning down you don't have the firefighters remodel the bathroom or kitchen at the same time. It's REALLY not a good time to raise the rent for the (now) homeless tenants !
