Housing asking prices just shot up recently, so they're probably just slashing prices that were absurd anyway.
Actual reduction of house prices is difficult without negative equity and ultimately making a loss, which the government does everything it can to prevent happening.
The only people who are allowed to lose money are savers and the otherwise prudent who get robbed by inflation because they don't subscribe to jedi usury economy.

When it gets down to the crunch, people will be offering you wheelbarrows full of gold for a glass of water and a slice of bread, and you'll refuse the offer.

What if I freeze 10 slices of bread and 10 glasses of water today, and do the deal for one of them? I'll still have 9 left.
It's like cake and eating it too, only with bread.

that's nine more than I would have if you hadn't tipped me off. and i'd have wheelbarrows full of gold. The wheelbarrows alone would have utility, especially since they're obviously quite strong and hard-wearing.
I'm gonna be a fucking winner!
