Just one quote from the Roubini piece:

Stephen Roach, chief economist at Morgan Stanley, added: "America's housing bubble finally appears to be bursting." He said a post-housing bubble shakeout could take at least two percentage points off the overall US gross domestic product growth rate.

If the housing bubble really goes up in a way similar to the dotcom bubble the impact could be very pervasive. A lot of ordinary people would be left holding the bag with defaults on mortgages.
