The whole political stance is to give the impression that they are doing something for their voters while helping their contributors and friends.
By the time 09 comes about, it will be futile to do anything because the dumping of houses will at that time be a flood. People know they can rent the same damn thing they dumped. Ultimately there will come a time when people let their house go and move into the one next door as a rental cos that one went through foreclosure and came back on the market at 1/4th their payment. They may dump theirs. rent the next one, and buy theirs back for less.
Cool.
