“When homes are doubling in price in every six years and incomes are increasing by a mere one percent per year, Fannie’s mission is of paramount importance,” Senator Jack Reed

Another clueless Congress criminal hoping nobody is paying attention.

Take the graph from Burning Down the House of when the price of homes, relative to the CPI went off the charts, corelated to the skyrocketing activity of Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac.

Then think about the effect of government involvement in the price of anything: hammers, wrenches, toilet seats and now... Freakin' Health Care!

Anybody besides me know what "red flags" look like?

Makes one wonder how the intervention through Medicaid and Medicare have already affected health care costs.
