The gov is taking even more control

Recommended Posts

Have you found out yet which government official ordered the big banks to invest in mortgage backed securities and told Moodys to give them "AAA" ratings despite being junk? And which federal law mandated Credit Default Swaps? Please don't keep this important information to yourself.

Fannie was made an independent stockholder owned corp. in 1968. :P



It's still a government-sponsored enterprise, as is Freddie Mac.

Fannie Mae is a government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) chartered by Congress with a mission to provide liquidity, stability and affordability to the U.S. housing and mortgage markets.

Government sponsorship is not the same as government control. The Feds sponsor lots of university research but they don't control it. Fannie and Freddie have their own BODs and until they were placed in receivership were independent entities.

You made the same error concerning the meaning of "control" with your confusion over independent medical advisory boards. Did you know there are now online dictionaries so you don't even have to buy one?

You indicate that the gov has no or little influence over this
Given that thought pattern I ask
You wanna buy a bridge?

Perhaps you can show where I claimed that, perfesser - or you could just beat that strawman a bit more.

And you should avail yourself of one so you can look up 'existing' and 'law'.

You have known all along that which I talk about

CRA!!

Interesting link and of course what or what it did not cause is a point of debate

However this portion of the link gets to the point

Criticism
Critics claim that government policy encouraged the development of the subprime debacle through legislation like the CRA, which in effect forces banks to lend to the same otherwise uncreditworthy consumers they are now being criticized for accepting.[8] [9] Defenders of CRA disagree, pointing out that half of all subprime loans were made by institutions that are not subject to CRA and another substantial share of subprime loans were made by subsidiaries of banks that do not fully come under CRA. They estimate that the substantial number of riskier loans banks were forced to accept by CRA were not enough to be a problem.[10]

So even the unbiased :D:D:Dsource :D:D:D Conservapedia***:D:D:D doesn't come right out and agree with you.

And the FDIC and the Federal Reserve both disagree with you.

As does common sense when the default rates are examined.

*** Have you read Conservapedia's entries on evolution and creationism? It gives you an insight into the impartiality of the site.

PS, Have you found out yet which government official ordered the big banks to invest in mortgage backed securities and told Moodys to give them "AAA" ratings despite being junk? And which federal law mandated Credit Default Swaps? Please don't keep this important information to yourself.
