Z, > Because of the fact that it didn't help to exacerbate the mortgage mess. You would be naive to believe that. It's one of many things that led to this mess, but an important one to point out. A "win-win" situation for everyone involved (brokers, lenders, borrowers, politicians, and even existing homeowners) until the speculative housing market collapsed. You can tell who the blind partisans are by how quickly they'll defend their own ideology over admitting the truth, that this was a real bipartisan mess. Tenchusatsu
