Il mercato immobiliare continua a rappresentare un rischio per l’economia degli Stati Uniti dove c'è stata una forte impennata nell'esecuzione dei pignoramenti ed espropriazioni di appartamenti ed edifici: 179.600 nel solo mese di luglio. Il senatore C. Dodd retiene che “da uno a tre milioni di persone potrebbero perdere la loro casa”. "Queste poche cifre indicano con chiarezza la gravità della crisi del settore inmobiliario degli Stati Uniti che veniva sistematicamente ignorata o minimizzata. Ora che l'esplosione è avvenuta, emergono le caratteristiche distruttrici di un collasso che sta facendo tremare il cosiddetto sistema finanziario internazionale" - afferma l'analista geopolitico Tito Pulsinelli in un articolo per Selvas.org. La Banca Centrale Europea (BCE) finora ha emesso 120 miliardi di dollari per soccorrere i truffatori d'oltreoceano e i loro compari speculatori delle banche europee. "Si premiano gli infami, li si incoraggia a perseverare. E' una autentica istigazione a delinquere" - commenta Pulsinelli.
