Our money supply is not determined by how many "Greenbacks" the treasury prints.

And I'm saying the economics determine supply and demand here.

It all has to do with supply and demand.Just because it's online or listed doesn't mean you can't get a deal, you just have to remember to do the math like anything else.I still see MANY properties listed in areas on the wrong MLS system.

Artificially inflating prices by holding back supply only postpones the inevitable.So many things that can be done by both government and the private sector.

This could be limited to only those who are registered, or it could be open to all - good questions stimulate better discussions.Or an email address could be set up to receive questions in advance of the event, in which case the answers would only be revealed during the live event.For those attending live, there could be a board / forum set up to receive questions as the event progresses, with answers to be supplied at the conclusion of the speaker's main presentation.One way to stimulate questions is to offer a reward for the question voted best for that event.

You can see the effects of supply and demand by the minute.

Most military spending in most countries goes towards the compensation of people, routine maintenance, supplies and ammunition, etc.

BTW obtaining an MLS listing of cash buyers was something I was thinking of but I either have to have my RE license or know someone that does and would be willing to supply this list, right?

Banks are holding onto inventory in an effort to artificially increase prices by lower supply (or so it seems).

I agree, that agent should have disclosed the bonus, and I think that is addressed in agency relationships as well as the code of ethics, might check in your state.It's just human nature to protect your food supply!
