CNBC Video: Larry Kudlow & John Carney on the FHA and Government's Housing Bias

***********************

One year after rescuing Fannie and Freddie (to the tune of $200 billion, and still growing), what has the government learned about irresponsible mortgage lending.

Absolutely nothing.

Ultimately this is politics and bubble re-blowing.  The FHA was pressured to fill the void in the mortgage origination market last year when private players were exiting.  Rather than allow market forces to determine housing prices which might extend the pain, Washington in its own re-electable self-interest, has decided to to re-inflate the bubble, debt and deficits be damned. 

It's free money for everyone.  The IRS isn't asking for proof.  Even 4-year-olds are getting in on the $8,000 homebuyers tax credit.  What could possibly go wrong?
