The way mortgages are dealt with in the US is hardly an example of unfettered capitalism. You get a targeted tax break for mortgages, you get the fed pumping liquidity in to or out of the system, including bailouts, and at various times you have pressure to lend to as many people as possible, than later pressure to shore up lending standards.

All sorts of government intervention going on there.
