About US Housing
Looking at the low rates at which the US Government is lending money, borrowing money from the US Government for commercial – consumer – business loans should make the loans very cheap. With the FEDERAL funds rate close to 0, loans should be very cheap in the USA even with 2-3 % margins.
Rated Covered Bonds traded on open exchanges where the bank originating the loan has skin in the game could be a good way to do free market price discovery for commercial and consumer loans at various risk levels.
Securitization with government backing as in from Fannie and Freddie could also be used in the scenario of lack of trust between entities involved in the commercial activity.
I like Solar Power Installations on the homes to supply power to the grid as a way of increasing the value of the under water property. Germany has feed in tarriffs to incentivize distributed solar power generation.
A few ideas on Solar Energy:
Distributed Power Generation for Next Generation Smart Grids
High Efficiency Thin Film Solar Cells without using Anti-Reflect Coating

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner with its record number of orders is going to be the main mover of the markets in 2012.
Book Transcript: Earth 2012 AD: An Engineering Solution to the World’s Financial Crisis
Here is a downloadable link to a compilation of all of my blog posts classified under Philosophy section of my home page here:
These posts mainly cover my ideas on economics and most of them are derived from Michael Spence’s “The Next Convergence: Future of Economic Growth in a Multi Speed World.” One of the important things about this book is that Spence shows the importance of innovation in producing growth and the other is that all of his ideas are applicable in this post-crisis world.
