Mooooooo!rgage bailout.
Hell even Kudlow and Luskin praise the Fed intervention in capital markets at the expense of savers and responsible borrowers. Too bad we don't have a free market economy.

She sits there and proclaims that 'the market didn't work' as if that settles it at all or explains a goddamn thing. Their mentality is that when someone makes a bad decision and faces consequences it is a sign that the market is not working, as if the market should protect everyone from harm. This is just ignorant bullshit.

I know I'm preaching to the choir but Pinette is right.

People made foolish investments and chased a bubble, now they're getting burned for bad decisions; it seems like the market is working fine for me.

Who's standing up for the potential homebuyers that'll finally be able to buy a house after this correction is over ?
