Actually, I think it’s spelled “schmuck”, SDR. Sorry to be so pedantic, but I was a fanatical speller as a kid, and some things are hard to shake completely as an adult. However we spell the words, I think we feel about the same about the government intervention in the market for homes. It’s kinda odd, because you probably get a net personal benefit from the intervention through your job (as a RE agent), and I probably do also, through my job in financial services.
But that doesn’t compensate me for what I feel is the long term damage done to the economy, for the unfairness of rewarding irresponsibility over responsibility, and for the higher price I will have to pay for the place I live in next.
