Even when gubmit CAN. People have made bad home financing decisions. Lenders have also. If those lenders go bankrupt, great. If those people become homeless, that's a good thing too. If the financial markets collapse and the economy gets set back a couple of years, then we will ALL learn an important lesson. If gubmit could have prevented all this, it would be a mistake. That would be mamby-pamby socialism. Protecting Americans. What will they try next?
Okay, that's a 90º twist...where's the final 90º?
