it is called socialism and creeping nationalization of credit.

When economy is in recovery and does well socialism is quite acceptable.

kinda felt to me like we had a de-facto nationalization with the pretense of "emergency measures" about 7 years ago.

I have a 25 year FHA loan, so what's the big deal? They're just as good as the traditional 30-year, bank loaned mortgage.
