This explains exactly why the housing market is the disaster it is and what is wrong with the thinking process of many of our elected officials.
In a bid to stem taxpayer losses for bad loans guaranteed by federal housing agencies Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac, Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) proposed that borrowers be required to make a " 5%" down payment in order to qualify.
His proposal was rejected 57-42 on a party-line vote because, as Senator Chris Dodd (D-Conn) explained, "Passage of such a requirement would restrict home ownership to only those who can afford it."
I can't add anything to this.

| Based upon that logic, since I can afford it, I shouldn't have to pay for it? | |
