Episode 279: Solving the Right Problem the Wrong Way Does Not Solve the Problem

Capital Record

About this episode

The president of the United States has ordered Fannie and Freddie to buy $200 billion of mortgage bonds (in a week where he has said and done a lot of things, some of which he is even allowed to do). On today’s Capital Record, David unpacks what this means, what it doesn’t mean, and why it doesn’t represent any solution to the housing affordability mess in which we find ourselves.
