All great points! The government purposely hobbled these financial guarantors for OVER 8 years, they will need to be COOPERATIVE going forward to make this work, NOT COMBATIVE!
Uncle Sug gains the following by being COOPERATIVE:
(1) Helps the average American keep their financed housing costs as low as possible.
(2) The Federal Reserve will be able to more effectively utilize GSEs' MBS for their Monetary Policy Goals.
(3) NOT 1 THIN DIME IS PUT ON THE US GOVERNMENTS BALANCE SHEET!
(4) The US GOVERNMENT is in essence, leveraging $5T to $6T in American mortgages, WITH PRIVATE CAPITAL IN A 1ST LOSS POSITION.
