  3. In 2008, did banks lend money to people who wanted to buy a house because they believed that the value of the housing market would keep rising? So even if people defaulted on their loan repayments then the banks could reposes the house as it was used as collateral. As the value of the house would be of greater worth than the loan so that the banks could make a profit. Is this correct? Thanks!

  4. Hello!
    How reliable is this site for a school project?:
    – Is the fact objective or subjective?
    – Where is the fact taken from?
    – What is the purpose with the website?
    – And also who owns the site and controls the content?

    I would be so glad if you could answer this!

  5. Hello I have a quick question about externalities dealing with paying college athletes. I was wondering if the expense of healthcare later in life is considered a negative externality because the “Free education” that they are paid with cannot fund the cost of healthcare in the years after they leave college. Thanks for any help possible!
