This is just more government interferance and hindsight. No real teeth into the fraud commited by our CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENATIVES who allowed this to happen. No mention of poor policies to lend money to those who can not afford it in the first place.
We already have sen what happens when bad loans are purchased then defaulted on. It creatd this mess. So what does the Senate propose. Purchasing these bad loans. How bad is that?
