what non-sense - California AG Requests "Good-Faith Pause" on GSE Foreclosures

Why is government  getting involved with principal reduction? How is that fair to those of us who won’t be getting this hand-out? As it is there is a shortage of homes available for people who can afford them to buy them today.

 

Gov’t needs to stay out of the market. The government’s cheap rates, and insurance were as to blame for the easy money lending that caused this housing meltdown, and I hardly think they know what they’re doing now. Govt needs to stop interfering.
