Quote from a comment after the article...
"This is very misleading. FORECLOSURES UP 327 PERCENT.
What is failed to be related in this article is the fact that there are TWENTY MILLION active mortgages in california. Lets say the number of foreclosures LEAPS INTO THE STRATOSPHERE, say, to SIXTY THOUSAND foreclosures from its current level (47k). Well, that may sound REAL impressive and doom and gloom lovers can rejoice, but that is only THREE TENTHS OF ONE PERCENT of the total number of active mortgages. 99.7% of mortgages are intact, a dreadful, horrible, amazing MEASLY three tenths of one percent are in foreclosure!
Let's face it, we do have a problem in the housing market, but it is WAY WAY WAY WAY overblown by ridiculous, and misleading headlines such as this."
