michael milken of 1980's fame has found God and charity after jail and cancer. runs a non-profit think tank now.
few years back he did a study on home prices vs income. found that it fluctuated between 20% and around 40% to 45%. hit the peak twice in the last 60 years. 1981 and 2004, the last year of the study. i think no matter what the government is going to try to do we'll get a reversion to the mean which has been around 30%

Please, keep up the rambling stream of nonsense consciousness, I love it.
