Sub-Prime Mortgage Fiasco Explained…Using Stick Figures

We have all heard about the "sub-prime" mortgage crisis, but do you really understand what it is all about and why the collapse of the sub-prime market has lead to a decline in your local real estate market as well as a decline in the American economy in general.

Take a look and let me know what you think.
