stated income loans is a problem that is unique to this cycle, since there were no such thing in the old days.

Wouldn't stating income that is not true, and by signing the loan application, an act of fraud? So in theory, if these borrowers eventually defaults, a lender could come after them for fraud and may be exempt from non-recourse limitations.

Then again, a defaulting borrower may tell the lender that it was joe loan officer who told them what to put down on the application and passes the buck back to the lender?

In either case, I think these stated income loans are going to be one hell of a mess when the excrements hit the fan.
