Martin Feldstein and other experts renew their call to stem the decline in house prices with a new policy for homeowners under water - 2010-2012

01/05/2009

The cost would be an estimated $350 billion to cancel some of the mortgage debt of homeowners. Feldstein says this is a necessary step to revive the U.S economy. Letting the forest fire of foreclosures burn itself out would damage the U.S. economy further. Feldstein says this is not an option.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
