Feeling like a loser because your American dream is turning into a nightmare? Before you reach for the shotgun to blow your brains out, take a look outside the window. Here is another example of how propaganda works, not with disinformation but instead by not providing information. The itsey-bitsey report below is about the steepest decline in home prices. Maybe they could make it clear this is UNPRECEDENTED! Ya think?

NEW YORK -- The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller index shows U.S. home prices fell 11.4 percent in January, its steepest drop since S&P started collecting data in 1987.
The decline reported Tuesday means prices have been growing more slowly or dropping for 19 consecutive months. The index tracks the prices of single-family homes in 10 major metropolitan areas in the U.S.
The broader 20-city composite index is also down, falling 10.7 percent in January from a year ago. That is the first time both indexes dropped by double-digit percentages.
