Wash Mu already has a loan "product" that each month allows you to have FOUR choices of payment:
#1 - 30yr fixed,
#2 - 15 year fixed,
#3 - 30yr ARM, or
#4 - a "skip this month" option, producing negative amortization

All they gotta do is add a fifth option when things get really tight...

Option #5 - "holy crap, outta work until further notice", negative amortization indefinitely.
Don't tell Greenspan, just keep that baby on the books like a Japanese bank.

Kinda like the federal debt, just keep rolling it up, no worries, when it hits $10 trillion we'll do something non-Kensyian about it, meanwhile call it "pump-priming" and party like 1999 -g-
