Example of government collusion with big business

Our government is basically providing two commercial giants a blank check from the taxpayers....so Freddie and Fannie are still throwing a huge booze bash to pander to the very same politicians who are giving them our money.

And anyone wonders how so many billions of fake money polluted wall street...

Re: Example of government collusion with big business

Oh - and I should include this nice Fox story on the facts around Freddie and Fannie...if this was any of us - we would be in prison by now...not getting free money from taxpayers.
