Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[Donotunderstand]

agree with a lot of those thoughts ------ and the logic that since the GOV knows it will 99% bail out the TBTF -- GOV wans big and bigger capital reserves to reduce the need or $ amount ----- while the socialist banks (in red years) also know the bail out is coming and fight for the lowest capital reserve and least regulation possible - damn the people

re Investor - GOV gets some tax on gains (in SCOTUS now on unrealized foreign gains) ----

but GOV - for investor - at 3K a year - does share the loss - as losses can be deducted up to a net negative of 3K a year (?)
AND more importantly for TAX purposes ---- if I make say 50K in ST capital gains and in same year also lose 45K in capital gains in different stocks ---- I need only show a net gain of 5K ----- to me that is logical sharing in losses (an offset allowed - no limit ? - against gains?)
