New, Must read article by RICHARD EPSTEIN at

"The availability of a simple account fix to government overreaching lays bare the inexcusable workings of the Treasury's one-sided deals. Ironically, Mr. Hensarling's conscious effort to undermine property rights works at cross-purposes with his larger, laudable objective of trying to rid housing markets of their past, massive irregularities in order to encourage more private investment. What private fund will invest in projects when their cash can be siphoned off by dubious contractual liberties and administrative shortcuts that make a mockery of the rule of law?"
