Where I live in Prince George’s County, new homes are popping up all over the place. Some are luxury digs with home theaters, designer bathrooms and gourmet kitchens. And they are selling fast. Forget that old American dream of two cars in every garage and a chicken in every pot. Some of my neighbors own three or four cars and have freezers full of steaks.

But signs abound that success is an illusion in many cases. Just look at the proliferation of placards on utility poles, even around my house in relatively affluent Fort Washington: “Behind in your mortgage payments?” “Need fast cash?” “Get out of debt now.”
