Elect Democrats don't be surprised at the results, particularly when they appoint FNFM execs as their chiefs of staff.

Freddie Mac's profits are high because the real estate market is improving and interest rates are at historic lows, boosting the value of their assets and lowering their costs.

No conspiracy required, Mr. P. Although I guess it might look like a conspiracy to someone who lacks basic understanding of high school level economics.

Yes, why are interest rates at historic lows (and for how long now) and why are asset prices rising when employment is not? Any ideas? If it's out in the open it's not a conspiracy.

No one has ever blown harder to make a smaller bubble.

all the printed money is going to be invested in the stock market or in housing and those are either going to bubble or be propped up no matter what.

amen.

never mind that daft old rhetoric about having exports and crap to pay for things, dont need it, you got the printing press.
