		<description><![CDATA[This story first appeared on the TomDispatch website. Every great American boom and bust makes and breaks its share of crooks. The past decade—call it the Ponzi Era—has been no different, except for the gargantuan scale of white-collar crime. A vast wave of financial fraud swelled in the first years of the new century.

		<description><![CDATA[That&#8217;s the gist of my new piece published today at TomDispatch.com. While there&#8217;s plenty of projections and guesses on how long it&#8217;ll taking the housing industry to recover, far fewer are the firsthand, boots-on-the-ground reports on how struggling homeowners are faring right now with explosive interest rates, underwater mortgages, and uncooperative servicers or lenders.
