Re: [But if by 'the market' you mean sub-prime as a whole, (if you had read the article, or any of several others), it is certainly fair to point out that the WORST of the sub-prime was private label.] "That's not a reply to the point that Fannie and Freddie created the market."

But it is a direct reply and solid REFUTATION to the wild and woolly claims that they 'caused' the sub-prime bubble and subsequent collapse....

Demonstrably they did not.
