Well, there you go.
There is one anomaly, as mentioned in the comments section: and that is Poland, which didn't have a housing bubble.
And just for the record, people should know that I understand that cuts have to be made: but it is the timing and nature of the managed (or otherwise) implementation of such cuts I think the coalition is in danger of getting catastrophically wrong. And though in many ways unfit to govern, Gordon Brown at least seemed to have the right policy about this particular crisis.
