Looks to me like the banks and mortgage companies that push these bad deals pay some kind of insurance premium for the Feds kind of like FDIC to cover those instances when the value of the property declined a lot in value. But just like with FDIC, it appears that the Feds didn't and don't know what they are doing as far as setting the insurance premiums correctly like in private industry. FDIC is underfunded and so are a host of other Federal insurance such as the Pension Benefit Guarantee and who knows what else..flood insurance too. The taxpayer foots the bill for all these goodies. Ridiculous.
