I think this might go all the way to the end, meaning, the government dips its toe in the water at first. Obviously this intervention will not work, it will make the situation worse, at best will postpone the day of reckoning. Once they find out that the intervention is not enough and is not bringing expected results, they think they have to go in with bigger ammunition, which in turn is still not able to solve the problem and they have to intervene on an even grander scale and so on and so on. It might not end until they nationalize Fannie Mae and use it to pump cash into households. It is better to get out of the banking system while you still can.
