    Typical liberal thinking. The housing bubble with the mortgage backed securities caused this mess. so what do they want to do?

    The problem is the CRA laws and other banking laws that forced banks to give bad loans. Are they changing the laws back to where they were before allowing the 0% down and no checking the ability to pay for the poor? No. HUD is wanting the CRA loans to be over 30% of the loans that banks give at this time. This is the Obama HUD that upped it to this. Ignore the problem and mess up everybody else. Typical liberal response.
