I guess that makes sense, maybe I just don't know enough about this situation. Just seems to me like our tax dollars are going to the greedy to bail them out. Maybe I am wrong on that.

Although, on a side note, it does seem the government is using real estate to make a profit. If they buy all the notes, eventually the people will buy, and will buy at market price, meaning the gov. "SHOULD" make a profit.

If this was a corporation doing that, I would have absolute faith that that would happen. It's almost foolproof. BUT- This is the G.O.V. we're talking about. They'll find a way to fuck it up. Have no fear.
