Of course there are exceptions! I think the problem is the whole damn credit card society and to many people doing none producing work in the first place. The big problem with real estate people is there are just too damn many of them! They are like a whole community onto themselves, land and real estate are like road kill with a thousand vultures waiting swoop it up! Community, infrastructure, small farming mean nothing in america anymore its everyone grabbing a piece of the real estate pie before its all developed! So someone surely can be in this business and be ethical in thier day to day dealings with people, but the industry by its very nature is destructive! Urban sprawl is in the country and the rich are gentrifying nature!
