[quote=scaredycat]cheap governmental recourse loans…tied to your tax returns…non-dischargeable ever, like student loan debt…maybe your paycheck could go directly to the irs…[/quote]

Yes, the student loan system was government run for a long time until it was privatized then it’s now back to being government run again.

A student loan is non-dischargeable.

We should have government subsidies as part of the budget, or NONE AT ALL.

The Mikey Mouse obfuscation schemes of incentives are simply giveaways to industry who lobby. Those schemes never turn-out well. GSEs, FHA, etc… were just schemes to get money to the housing industries under the guise of helping people.

SD Realtor, I’d bet the CAR and NAR feel differently than you do about government involvement.

Yes I am sure they do feel different then I do. CAR and NAR are no better then most unions who are more concerned about putting people in power that will serve their own selfish interests.

If you think that a 100% run government lending program will be beneficial for the housing market then more power to you. The govt has a great track record running other massive programs so I am sure this one will be awesome.

I actually think that we should end all housing subsidies forever.

If we want to help poor people, or veterans, or whoever, just give them a cash as part of welfare.

If we are to have Fan/Fred, etc… they should be government run by federal employees, not in a hybrid way that allow private individuals to profit but the taxpayers to bailout.

It will only be marginally better, or perhaps worse, having the govt run the GSEs directly.

More to the point, why do we have any govt involvement in more than maybe 10% of the housing market? All it does is distort prices, or at the very least price distortions are a massive unintended consequence.

What we need is much smaller GSEs (and FHAs etc). How exactly to manage them is an important but secondary issue.
